America is a great nation in decline. We are Rome in the Third Century AD.
That doesn’t mean that great leaders and new ideas can’t emerge to stem the tide, but Imperial America is a very flawed nation. The part that concerns me the most is that our flaws tend to be what we export.
There is no doubt in my mind that Bush is the worst president of my 49 year lifetime. Nixon was a cynical, paranoid cheater but he was visionary compared to George W.
