The Carter Syndrome
Mead, Walter Russell
Foreign Policy, January/February 2010, online edition
"In this article Walter Russell Mead says that when it comes to foreign policy, Barack Obama could end up being another Jimmy Carter. He argues that Obama is "neither a cold-blooded realist nor a bleeding-heart idealist," and in the end, if he doesn't reconcile the two impulses, it could tear his presidency apart."
Walter Russell Mead is Henry A. Kissinger senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations.
