What should the President do?

1. Read the Pentagon Papers.
2. Abolish the CIA and the State Department. Re-create a State Department that's not CIA.
3. Cease paying any foreign aid (since most of it is paid in weapons anyway) to any country.
4. Remove all US presence in the Middle East except for new State Department diplomats.
5. Remove any trade restrictions, embargoes, or other sanctions on any Middle East countries.
6. Maintain a neutral political stance on sovereign nations' style of government.

I see you are a fan of isolationism. Can't say I don't blame you. Often times it seems there are more pros than cons in that situation.

What I think should happen is we help where needed, but ultimately let other countries in that area (UK, France, Germany, etc) help out. After all, they are closer.

The US needs to jump out of the world spotlight and realize it will still revolve whether our leaders like it or not.

If we go we have to stay forever.
