Beg to differ: there are too many scores to settle before there will be much bipartisanship (of course, there will be minor nods to the idea). I also think it is of capital importance who controls the government.

Even with the Caspian oil reserves, the Middle East will be a major conduit of petroleum and a problem for us. Besides, our current prime security threat is from Islamic and Arab extremism. Frankly, I am not sure why you think that neglect of Latin America will have serious consequences........
