and americans know it is not better. we are seeing that with the economy and in in terms of foreign policy. shannon: how would a president romney do things differently to rebuild the relationship and renewing some of that respect and fear around the world? well, you know, i think what president romney will do when talk about american leadership, talk about peace through strength. by the way, what ronald reagan was very successful at. our military has been decimated with sequestration, we decimate it more. governor romney said we will rebuild that. our allies will know they are our allies and we won t pull the rug out, on missile defense. governor romney has a good relationship with the democratic elected prime minister of israel and you want your allies to know they can trust and you your enemies to know that they should fear you. governor romny and vice-president ryan, you would get that. shannon: how concerned are
president or his policies. how much do you think the bubble burst because he didn t, he didn t reach the expectation or that the republican party decided first and foremost objective was to burst the bubble? the president what do you think? one of the things reagan did that was remarkable, he established great relationships with the leaders of congress. tip o neill and he worked on social security. they transformed social security. everybody thought it was a deadly issue. that does not exist at all. this administration has no good relations with the republican party in congress. boehner and the group in the house pulled the rug out. hold on quickly though. it s important for people to realize and you guys realize it that this isn t just this
right? well, events are unfolding at a dizzying pace and the u.s. government is trying its best to keep up, but i don t think that they have yet made the transition in their own minds that essentially, the compact between mubarak and his people has now be broken and it s time for him to go and the focus should be on transition. they cannot be seen to be pulling the rug out, but i think they have got to start to put in place the basis for the very kind of constitutional process that you describe and that elbaradei embraced. richard, you felt they were be too critical of mubarak. all the calls of restraint
