In a perfect world, I would agree. However, our enemies would love us to leave the UN because then we would loose our veto. I could see the EU gaining the use of our veto. You then would heve the 6 prement members of the UN passing world wide resoultions against the US. We must stay in the UN. Well, we just can't have the UN passing resolutions against us, can we? It might hurt our feelings!
Excuse my sarcastic tone, but I don't give a rat's ass.

Absolutely. A UN without the US is irrelevant anyway, all modesty aside. It's just a fact, sorry.
Besides I'm sure many nations that value freedom and democracy as does the US would jump ship with us and form the beginings of a new world organization, one with a bit higher standards and responsiveness.

One resolution might be an oil embargo. China & Russia are within marching distance to the Middle East.
