If we're smart, we'll seek a world in which there are no superpowers.

Of course, and one where everyone gives flowers to each other every morning too.
But that ain't gonna happen.

What the America bashers never think of is the real value of America to the world is what is NOT happening...Europe is completely safe from any kind of invasion without having to spend gargantuan funds to support a bunch of individual armies large enough to protect each country on it's own - like it has been for 100's of years. Europe now has the HUGE benefit of having the protection of a military - THEY DON'T HAVE TO PAY FOR. As does Canada, Mexico and a variety of other countries - the U.S. military keeps 3/4 of the world safe from war.
