What i want to talk about is the world that robert kagan and Bret Stephens once that is undergirded by American Power and i think that is the world we all believe has been vastly beneficial for the United States, for canada but for by and large the whole world. It allowed the transformation i talked about are not in america. The question is what is made that possible .
