On Foreign Policy: Reject philosophy of national decline in all of its variants

When great powers begin to experience erosion in their global standing, their leaders inevitably strike a pose of denial. We are seeing a similar phenomenon today in America, where the topic of decline stirs discomfort in national leaders. Mitt Romney stated flatly that he "rejects the philosophy of decline in all of its variants." And former U.S. ambassador to China and one-time GOP presidential candidate Jon Huntsman pronounced decline to be simply "un-American."
