re: Why should the U.S. be an enemy of modern day Russia?

Because Russia is actively engaged in a sustained effort to undercut American influence and power. Ignoring them is to cede the contested areas of the world to Russia.

So you now agree with Mitt Romney and believe Barrack Hussein Obama was wrong?

The United States of America was founded as a constitutional republic, not an empire. What has being the world's superpower gotten us? We have been at war almost perpetually since Korea, our currency has been devalued, we have spent ourselves into oblivion on wars and maintaining a bloated military, our government operates the largest domestic surveillance apparatus in world history, our civil liberties are disappearing and our populace has zero understanding about the role and scope of its own government.

We have deviated so far from what this country was supposed to be, all because of a desire of those in power to rule the world, that true debate over returning to a government that minds its own business and takes care of its own is near impossible.
