In my FRESHMAN YEAR at FORDHAM, I took a course led by LT Hickman, as a member of the AIR FORCE ROTC, entitle GEO POLITICS.
This course focused on the GeoPolitical forces over hundreds of years. it plotted the CENTER of POLITICAL and ECONOMIC power and it demonstrated how this power had moved from CHINA to the MIDDLE EAST, to EUROPE and then the UNITED STATES.
Lt. Hickman predicted that his CENTER of POWER would move from the US to CHINA in 50 years.
Of all the courses, I took since this year, I remember this predictation AND is amazed that it happening as LT Hickman and the GeoPolitical course designers predicted, namely..the balance of political, economic and military power is moving from the U.S. to China.
This reinforced by REALITY and confirmed by this weeks ECONOMIST.. and its headline and featured article about CHINA/ US relationships and how they can impact the world and that OBAMA and his Administration must stand up and FIGHT!
I believe that history goes through cycles and the reality is that when nations believe they are the leaders and no one will displace them, it is when the world experiences unpleasent and negative events. The only thing that can change this and its negative results is that REAL leaders appear and change the PREDESTINED course.
I hope that OBAMA and his team, change their desire to CHANGE THE WORLD and focus on the real issues... like GOOD PAYING, REAL JOBS and allow the U.S. to MAKE THINGS and not pretend it can win by "IMAGINATION and THINKING OUT OF THE BOX", since 98% of us work on REAL THINGS and not IMAGINATION or DREAMING"
