Well I think how things work, it takes an awful lot of effort by a lot of people. And building a community of interests, building consensus, I think, is really the great challenge. The overwhelming challenge in the world today for the United States is how we use this power – unrivaled power, unprecedented power, unmatched power – economically, militarily, technologically, culturally? How we use that power to protect American interests and to make a better world – safer, more prosperous. That is the great challenge for the country now, and I think will be for many, many years to come. Recorded on: 7/5/07

As usual, Mr. Hamilton hits the nail on the head.
How do we use this power? Do we bully and lash out when we are attacked, as bin Laden and his cronies hope?
Or do we continue to try to be the people that others admire want to emulate and the society that most want to be a part of?
