The United States of America is heading off to a general election, and the stakes have never been too high—not just because of the domestic American polity. However, also because of the greater evolution of geopolitics and America’s standing as the safeguard of the global order, which has prevailed ever since the Second World War, and the fall of the Iron Curtain, serving as the beacon of stability (not at times) and safeguard of liberal principles that all of us take for granted (extensively covered in my previous writing, Ebbing Tides of Freedom: The Global Retreat of Liberal Democracy). With great challenge comes great responsibility—responsibility given to the best man, contrary to the notion that the United States could only discover two aged men—one who could die in office and the second who could start another global calamity.
