Synopsis:
A former National Security Advisor evaluates the record and accomplishments of three recent presidents in the area of foreign affairs: George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush. Zbigniew Brzezinski's assessment is an informed review of history since the fall of Communism, showing that even if they were not always right, the three presidents acted boldly on the world stage. He finds that each one had a different emphasis and contribution, and he credits and blames when he can, though he is especially critical of President George W. Bush. Brzezinski is most revealing in his comments on the Middle East, where he sees the greatest and most regrettable failure. For Brzezinski, America is the world leader, and it must assume that role and act with both military and moral authority.
