Which would be a tragedy for the world and equal to throwing out the baby with the bath water. The difference between us (people not in the minority as you might suggest) is that we believe in cooperation amond nations as a good, worthy goal, one worth working very hard for, despite the flaws. I'm with him for the most part. We should retain our seat at the UN, but boot them out of the country and reduce our $$ to them. Then we should create another body that only includes democratically elected governments. This is sort-of what NATO is becoming already, just make it official. It's absurd that places like Lybia can head up the human rights group in the UN. Brian

Al, Which would be a tragedy for the world and equal to throwing out the baby with the bath water. An apt description for those who want to leave the U.N. Isn't that what Buchanan wants? Speaking of which, if the U.N. is such an effective and ideal institution right now, then our leaving it would only hurt ourselves. The remaining members of the U.N. can then work out their problems amongst themselves and emerge stronger than an isolated America. Somehow, I doubt that's going to happen. Guess that makes me a "supremacist American." Tenchusatsu
