you say......No, to be a true leader you need to be respected. You refer merely to power, and in this regard you equate using power with being powerful. But in the real world, the use of power creates weakness -- and we have a group of people in Washington weakening the United States of America day after day. I say.....I suppose it depends on your perspective..you see it that way and a lot of others don't, including the sitting administration. Look at it this way... we the US of A now control the 2nd largest oil reserve in the World, only Saudi Arabia is larger. I would say "objective accomplished" not to mention several ME countries now making brown underwear wondering if they will be next, like in Syria, SA, Iran........ Russia, France big losers...eh. this is the difference between the Jimmy Carters, Bill Clintons of the World and the Ronald Reagans, Geo Bushes of the World....... Middle East and Islamic AHs hate our guts, so we had nothing to lose anyway..... We will prevail, make no mistake.......
