“The United States is at the end of the period of global leadership anddomination that we’ve enjoyed for the last 50 years or so. The country isbankrupt economically. We’ve lost our edge in terms of politics, economics,socially. We no longer compare well with other countries around the world, andwe’re not admired as we once were by countries around the world. And we’renot viewed as a model for economic and political development, as we once were.So this really marks a global shift in world history, both for the United Statesand the rest of the world. It is a gloomy picture, and this wasn’t an easy book towrite for that reason. But I think the facts speak for themselves. If you look atthe United States, both in terms of comparing us to 20 years ago or in comparingus to other developed countries in the world, the United States doesn’t come outon top on almost any measure anymore. And this has long-term implicationsthat are going to affect the way we live and the role we play in the world. So it isa gloomy picture, although I think there are ways in which the United States caneventually emerge from this in a solid position.”
