History seems to suggest that for great powers [which America still is, much to the chagrin of progressives apparently] domestic policy and foreign policy are inextricably, unrelentingly joined - in fact America's rise to great affluence and power came on the heels of dramatic foreign policy initiatives - consequently, to aspire to the leadership of a great power and either not understand this dynamic or simply to be in denial of it causes one to conclude that such a person is a fool, dangerously naive... or has a hidden agenda.
So I take it Tom your brief parsing of Obama's speech to find a president unwilling to bear or uncomfortable with the burdens and frustrations of foreign policy concerns is your way of finally admitting that he is naive or a fool... or harbours a radical agenda hidden away from the public. Well done.
