Why to fear an Obama victory
Part A: National Security
1. Will neuter American power and influence, to fit in with the UN view of how America should act in the world. We will no longer be “THE” nation at the table, but just one of many sitting at the table.
2. Will be much more accommodating and conciliatory to nations such as Iran, Syria, North Korea and Venezuela, as if, it is our current policies that “force” them to behave as they now do.
3. Will diminish the value of our military, so all we will end up doing in times of crisis is “talking loudly” instead of being able and willing to back it up with a “big stick”
4. Will force our allies to take actions that they otherwise would not, because they won’t be able to trust that we will stand by them. Ukraine, George and other former soviet dominated countries will seek accommodation with a resurgent Russia rather than standing on principle or protecting their own sovereignty. Worst of all Israel will be forced to deal with Iran on their own with all the dire consequences that will bring.
5. How will Japan, Columbia, South Korea, Taiwan, the countries of Eastern Europe as well as the Gulf States react to the “New” America. ?
6. Trade Agreements? There won’t even be a need for a Trade Representative.
