Obama's New Foreign Policy Prospect

Obama's New Foreign Policy Prospect

William Pfaff

Paris, January 22, 2013 -- The overall failure of American foreign policy during the first Obama presidency was foreseeable. Mr. Obama had been a law professor and urban organizer. He took his foreign policy views from reading the newspapers, and he appointed as his advisers and officials figures from past Democratic administrations and the academy, representing the conventional liberal views of the period. Original thinking was not evident. In military matters, he inevitably was the prisoner of the Pentagon. http://www.williampfaff.com/article.php?storyid=609
