This book lays out compelling evidence that U.S. foreign policy for more than two decades has been an unqualified failure. If substantive changes are not made--soon--in how we engage with the world we risk suffering catastrophic loss. Whether Donald Trump wins a second term in November or Joe Biden is voted into office, it will be crucial that the country's jacked-up foreign policy be brought into conformity with new and emerging realities. If we continue the status quo of our current bipartisan foreign policy that has dominated for decades, we risk international obsolescence - or we'll fumble our way into an entirely avoidable, unnecessary, and pointless war. As of this writing, we are not at war with China, Russia, North Korea, or Iran. We have the strongest military with an unequaled ability to project power globally. The dollar is still the dominant global currency and we still have the most powerful economy on the planet. From this position of strength and power, we can change course on our foreign policy to slowly work off the negative consequences that have already accrued owing to past misdeeds, avoid any catastrophic outcomes in the present, and actually increase our power to ensure continued freedom and economic prosperity for generations to come. All that is possible and realistic at this moment. It remains to be seen whether we'll seize this opportunity or condemn ourselves to plunge blindly forward into an avoidable disaster. This book is written to expose how our foreign policy got jacked up, why it has bombed, and explains how it can be successful well into the future. The choice is ours. Generations of Americans will either thank us for the enlightened and wise choices we make in the coming months and years - or condemn us for failing to see the obvious truth; for blundering forward into preventable disaster.
