Obama and Europe
If Europe loves Obama but it wouldn’t vote for him, then Stefan Theil is insinuating that Europe reeks of political hypocrisy, isn’t he? If ever Obama becomes US president, that would only mean one thing: there’s no racism in the US which would make the Americans really biblically moral fundamentally—a dream bigger than Martin Luther’s but which is also possible like any other.
Would it be more correct if we call Obama a Pessimistic Realist instead as an optimistic realist? As I see it, most realists are pessimists by experience. By the way, McCain wasn’t flip-flopping when he argued that a ‘League of Democracies’ should expel both Russia and China from the group—he took a big gamble. |
