Imagine a U.N. that is not hobbled by the vetoes of authoritarian bullies such as China and Russia. I believe that we need to go there, because the planet is not yet secured for freedom. To join the club, Georgia would need to lift restrictions on opposition and free media, and deliver to justice those who ordered atrocities against civilians.
However, the foregoing are my answers to the question at hand. I have not heard similar policies from Ralph Nader or Cynthia McKinney or Cindy Sheehan. The questions that I would ask them seem evident now. How long should be the leash of the U.S. military? Where do we draw the lines for American interests? How much funding, or how much of a diet, would you give to federal spending on the aerospace and defense sectors?
Or, should onlooking voters like me simply take it that progressives are blanket pacifists and military isolationists?

Note [1]: I referred to my newly-popular internet column. Last week, readership exploded when I published my tract, 'CNN Caught In Genocidal Correctness.' Over 70X my normal readership took in that column. Imagine a stadium full of people, studying a John Kusumi political column. It happened last week, much to the chagrin of CNN. :-)
