“Our fall began decades ago. NAFTA took away a lot of our manufacturing.”

I hate to admit this but Ross Perot was right back in 1992...”..that giant sucking sound...” has been American jobs leaving for low-wage second and third world $hitholes.

“Free Trade” was (and still isn’t) “free”..it’s always been “managed trade.” Corporations have fled to “low cost” countries and the result is the coming demise of the American Middle Class...we’re humped.

I’m sick of this guy running around the world telling them how awful the United States is and how he’s going to send them our money to make it all better.

Who is this Harvard Law graduate?

Why haven't you heard? He's the perfect post-American Harvard man! He doesn't even like America, much less Harvard!

Let’s recall this idiot. Just because his minions lost an election, it’s no reason for us to lose our country.

I have always had a lot of respect for India and Indian people. They are intelligent and hardworking.

American Exceptionalism

To heck with American Exceptionalism. What I would like to see is American keep its nose at home and build up the country and its borders. Good defensive tactics. I could care less what is going on overseas.

Interesting piece, but the poster exemplifies two Indian vanities.

This desire for equality; that’s bunkum thinking, the US is a HyperPower, India a middling regional one.

And the last, the threat of we will get you when we are a superpower......again, a slightly juvenile aspect of this particular form of Indian Zeitgeist.

IMO, the first is fantasy, the second juvenile.

This type of screed essentially makes all the valid points about Pakistan, the Trade thingie drown in the petulant tantrum of the opening and end.

lol. Sarah needs to be the keynote speaker at the RNC Convention in the 2012 election!!

She's so vivacious and full of life everytime I see her!

If I were here, I wouldn't be interested in running for office. She's got everything right where she is. Great family, great money, great looks, power, influence and can take potshots at the left all day every day!

I prefer her as a free-agent! :)

Godspeed

India has a lot of smart people, because it has a lot of people. But India has a whole lot of poor people, living in horrible conditions. Compare that to poor people in the U.S. who have cars, cable television, microwave ovens, and cell phongs. A lot of smart Indians move to the U.S. If India was the land of milk yogurt and honey, they would not.

This idea that India's economic improvements mean the U.S. has lost its exceptionalism is absurd.

Barry makes me physically ill.

"And now because of the incredible rise of India and China and Brazil and other countries..."

Because of union, regulatory, legal and tax stymies on American incentive.
