Zitat:The New American Century
The 21st century has started with the American people having had to endure some of the most tumultuous deterioration of our economy, civil rights, and reputation and credibility abroad in modern era. From Internet bubble, housing bubble, Arthur Anderson accounting problems, Enron, 9/11, Iraq and Afghanistan wars, terrorism, Abu Ghraib and water boarding torture, CIA kidnappings in Europe, to stock market meltdown and mortgage and credit market freeze, job losses and continuing global meltdown.
The newly elected Obama Administration and the new Congress, who were voted in by a combination of substantive and rhetorical agenda and loss of hope in the ousted Republican administration, have generated immense expectations by the American people.
But dreaming for change is not going to produce change, nor produce the change that best serves our country and humanity. We must first understand the challenges of the new century by discovering why past policies brought us to this point in time in order to build a new path for a better, more peaceful and prosperous future.
