"As a graduate student twenty years ago, I had a departmental
recruiting poster tacked up on the wall next to my desk. It read, in
part, "If you are curious, patient, and awfully damned intelligent,
consider a Ph.D. in microbiology." In 1984 a degree in microbiology
seemed like a good idea."

American presidents, rarely introspective by nature and driven by
hubris and a sense of national exceptionalism, are not particularly
motivated to make serious New Year’s resolutions. Past presidents
sometimes declared themselves prepared to make lifestyle changes, to
exercise more, quit smoking, or eat healthier. But what a change for
the better it would be to have a president look back on the past year
in a serious way and resolve to implement a redirection of policy that
would actually benefit the American people. President Barack Obama
has promised change, even if he has rarely delivered, so the time
would seem to be right for some shifts in policy to restore America’s
reputation and return to the principles of the Founding Fathers. I
would like to propose that President Obama make eight resolutions,
largely in the foreign policy area, but also including a restoration
of constitutionalism and civil liberties. Those resolutions might
look something like the following:
"First, recognizing that the United States has obtained absolutely no
benefit from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and conceding that those
wars were unconstitutional, misconceived, fraudulently sold to the
public, and disastrously executed, I will order a reversal of the
surge that is currently taking place and will begin the withdrawal of
all US forces from both conflicts. All US forces will be removed from
both countries by the end of 2010. I will establish a policy of non-
interference by Washington in both regions and will recommend that all
of Afghanistan and Iraq’s neighbors join together in multilateral
security conferences that will reduce the threat level for everyone
living in the Middle East and Central Asia.
"Second, in an attempt to make the use of force more difficult, I will
further pledge my administration to support the constitutionally
mandated practice of asking Congress to engage in a full and public
debate before declaring war. If American soldiers are to go into
combat anywhere in the world, a formal declaration of war will be
required. I will also insist that Congress fully fund any war that it
declares.
"Third, if American soldiers do go to war my administration will
explain clearly the imminence of the threat, will outline achievable
objectives in the fighting, and will incorporate into the planning a
timetable and exit strategy. The Obama administration will not
endorse any wars of choice or preemption where the use of military
force is not in response to a direct threat against a vital US
national interest.
"Fourth, I will establish an openly declared policy of non-
intervention in the internal affairs of other countries, whether or
not I approve of how those countries are governed. Interference in
Latin America and Asia by the United States has only served to distort
the natural political processes and inhibit genuine development of
democracy and pluralism in many nations. The United States will be a
friend to all but will no longer tell others how to govern
themselves. As part of that non-interventionist policy, the United
States government will not directly or indirectly support dissident
groups seeking to bring about regime change in any country.
"Fifth, recognizing that Israel has absolutely no interest in stopping
its illegal settlement policies and enabling the development of an
independent Palestinian State, I will disengage the United States from
any involvement in the region and let the two sides work out their own
solution. I will further cancel the $30 billion in military aid for
Israel that I recently approved as the assistance is completely
counterproductive, distorting the power relationship between Israel
and its neighbors and enabling Tel Aviv to engage in a feckless policy
of military dominance in the Middle East region. The United States
will continue to be a friend to Israel but will also be a good friend
to every other country in the Middle East.
"Sixth, I will restore the rule of law both inside the United States
and also governing the activities of federal agencies and departments
that have a presence overseas. I will call on Congress to repeal both
the unconstitutional Patriot Acts and the Military Commissions Act.
There will be no CIA secret prisons, no torture, no extraordinary
renditions, and Guantánamo and Bagram prisons will both be closed
within ninety days. Those detainees who can be charged with criminal
activity will be given their day in court and all other prisoners will
be released and compensated for their illegal and immoral
incarceration. Government employees who have engaged in or ordered
torture will be identified and prosecuted. The use of pilotless
drones to attack and kill suspected terrorists will be discontinued
because there is no due process for the victims of the attacks, most
of whom are completely innocent civilians.
"Seventh, I will order the Pentagon and State Department to evaluate
the costs and benefits in maintaining hundreds of military bases
worldwide. There will also be an examination of the relevance of NATO
now that the cold war has ended. I will also be looking at expensive
weapons systems designed to fight enemies that no longer exist. I am
willing to be convinced that America’s vast military industrial
complex somehow benefits the nation, but if that is not the case at
the conclusion of the review I will order most of the bases to be
closed and will likely also recommend that NATO be disbanded. Given
the absence of any major international military threat, the Pentagon
and the intelligence services will be required to show cause why their
budgets should not be reduced by 50% over the next three years.
"Eighth, convinced the federal bureaucracy is bloated and
unproductive, driving up costs for all citizens and creating needless
regulation, I will order an immediate twenty percent reduction in
force across the board in the federal government and will close the
Departments of Agriculture, Education, Health and Human Services,
Housing and Urban Development, and Homeland Security. As the Director
of National Intelligence needlessly duplicates the function of the
CIA, it will also be disbanded."
Will the president of the United States resolve to do what is needed
to make our country a better place for each and every citizen and to
restore the nation’s standing in the world? Unfortunately the changes
that are needed would require him to look at the world and our own
country in an unconventional and almost revolutionary way, which means
they are extremely unlikely. But it is perhaps not too much to hope
that even a president, surrounded as he is by claques of advisers
spewing conventional wisdom, can begin to perceive that there is
something very wrong about continuing business as usual while the ship
of state is foundering. Most Americans, if allowed to have a say in
the matter and if given genuine leadership embracing change, might
well endorse most of the eight resolutions appearing above. American
foreign and security policies are not working to benefit the nation
while the civil liberties of every citizen have been infringed upon in
response to poorly understood overseas and domestic threats. Perhaps
it is time to abandon all the old assumptions that have shaped the
consensus politics of the past sixty years and start from zero, a
journey back through the Constitution and to the debates of the
Founders in a bid to restore our Republic.
