British PM Gordon Brown announced from the G20 in London that “a new world order” is emerging. President Barack Obama called the G20 a “turning point.” What could they mean? Could it be the end of American sovereignty?
As [John] Bolton puts it, the [Brooking's Institution] report’s transnational blueprint would entail “a sharp, indeed radical, turn away from the principles and practices of representative self-government that have been at the core of the American experiment since the nation’s founding.” The “pivot point” of that turn is a “shifting understanding of American sovereignty” – from the traditional meaning of “our collective right to govern ourselves within our Constitutional framework” to the modern liberal elite’s view of “transnational consensus as the proper model for the United States.” The report uses the euphemism “responsible sovereignty” to disguise its attack on the traditional notion of sovereignty. It calls for the United States to commit to “a rule-based international system” that will create the conditions for “global governance.”
Is there anything to stop this from happening? The way we’re headed it sure doesn’t look that way.
We dropped our sovereignty (or what was left of it) on 11/4/08, when we elected this anti-American administration.
