    For decades, elites in the United States had a consensus on foreign policy: They believed that championing a liberal world order was in our interest. Now, we are seeing a new left-right axis emerge around protectionism and isolationism. My latest:https://wapo.st/2PZdbiN

        The American populace has always been non-interventionist. The bipartisan elites have always had to lie or exploit a disaster to persuade Americans to go to war. That's what happened in Vietnam, Gulf war, Iraq War, Libya, Syria,...

        Of course, you'd suggest a continued, "American Exceptionalism" approach. That's just keeping on with business as usual for US foreign policy, and it's exactly what Clinton would have done had she been elected.

        That's not what we need. What we need is principled diplomatic and development enegagement that seeks to address root cause issues, that is unwilling to sell out our values for short-term interests, and that is willing to invest the time and effort into long-term change!
