We Need a New Foreign Policy

Professor Jeffrey Sachs: Is there hope for U.S. democracy?

The United States would have to abandon the idea that what counts is to be number one.

The idea of hegemony, the idea of dominance, the idea of primacy, the idea of being the sole superpower, these are the absolute mistakes of the United States.

The U.S. will be safer if the whole world feels safe and secure.

America can only be secure if other places are secure as well.

In a world of nuclear arms, in a world of rapid spread of technology, you cannot be secure at the expense of the security of others.

***To make America great again would require someone like Prof. Jeffrey Sachs to become its president.
