    me as well....
    Isolationist

    The term isolationist is most often used negatively; few people who share its beliefs use it to describe their own foreign policy perspective. They believe in "America first." For them, national sovereignty trumps international relations. Many unions, libertarians, and anti-globalization protesters share isolationist tenets.

    Isolationists…

    Are wary of US involvement in the United Nations
    Oppose international law, alliances, and agreements
    Believe the US should not act as a global cop
    Support trade practices that protect American workers
    Oppose liberal immigration
    Oppose American imperialism
    Desire to preserve what they see as America's national identity and character
    Historical isolationist: President Calvin Coolidge

    Modern isolationist: Author/Commentator Pat Buchanan

    The question on China, I needed to answer none of the above.

    It says I am a:

    Realist

    Realists…

    * Are guided more by practical considerations than ideological vision
    * Believe US power is crucial to successful diplomacy - and vice versa
    * Don't want US policy options unduly limited by world opinion or ethical considerations
    * Believe strong alliances are important to US interests
    * Weigh the political costs of foreign action
    * Believe foreign intervention must be dictated by compelling national interest

    Historical realist: President Dwight D. Eisenhower
    Modern realist: Secretary of State Colin Powell

    -------------------

    Kissinger and Bismarck were better realists. The Peloponnesian War exemplifies realism. Not today's war. Sheesh.

    I think I have some of the neocon characteristics, and I dispute a lot of the answers I had to choose from. Not a very accurate questionairre nor a historically accurate one. But it's CSM, what do you expect?
