re: the Buchanan doctrine can be summed up in two words: Fortress America. No more excursions to Iraq, no more support of Israel, not even a single soldier in South Korea or Okinawa anymore. We pull out of Afghanistan and apologize to the natives there for "nation-building" without the Taliban's permission. We also uproot our bases in Germany and other parts of Europe and kick the U.N. out of Manhattan. Then we close our borders and tell Mexico to keep their problems on their soil.

He's about 80% correct.

Since you are so good at explaining "doctrines" why don't you explain the opposing Bush doctrine in the same detail.

Ted, the Buchanan doctrine can be summed up in two words: Fortress America. No more excursions to Iraq, no more support of Israel, not even a single soldier in South Korea or Okinawa anymore. We pull out of Afghanistan and apologize to the natives there for "nation-building" without the Taliban's permission. We also uproot our bases in Germany and other parts of Europe and kick the U.N. out of Manhattan. Then we close our borders and tell Mexico to keep their problems on their soil.

Other than the U.N. part, do you believe in the Buchanan doctrine? If not, what do you believe in?


I think your exaggerating Buchanan's position but by trimming some extremish aspects and doing some fine tuning I think its doable. We will become typical of most countries in the world instead a rampaging superpower.
