Romney decides to go with a destiny ordained by God

What he’s saying sounds great to the “America Fuck Yeah” types and gets them fired up. He’s playing to the same crowd that laps up his accusations that Obama is on an “apology tour” whenever he travels abroad. But his analysis of the coming century is unrealistic.

There’s just no reason to think the US can dominate the way it did in the immediate post-WWII period when the rest of the world was devastated. We can accept a changing world or bitch about living in the past. I choose the former.
