America's New Global Image
Peter Singer, Princeton University | November 6, 2008
Barack Obama’s election is a great first step to restore America’s image – but to maintain that image, real progress must be seen. ++ Despite the economic gloom, keeping his tax policy pledges will solidify domestic confidence in the president-elect. ++ The real work to be done, however, is international in its nature: “You matter to us. Your future is our future. And our moment is now.” ++ Closing Guantanamo, withdrawal from Iraq, reforming the UN security council, increasing foreign aid and tackling global warming are all a good start.
