This is a time for reflection; a new year is about to start. Time magazine chose Us as persons of the year. We the People, not Bush or any other influential individual. Maybe they mean that the accomplishments of people like our President are too meager to make a big deal out of them.
In any case, what do I expect from this man?
The country is divided almost in half. If one senator gets sick, "the balance of power" changes. That basically means, that there is no way to know what will happen in politics in the near future. Nevertheless this is what I expect; Bush:
o will not pull out all the troops from Iraq in 2007
o will insist on making tax breaks permanent
o will sign any immigration proposal coming from Congress and Senate deliberations
o will recognize China's role in setting American economic policy
o will direct his administration to include the remaining Axis of Evil members, North Korea and Iran, in public diplomatic dialog
In the long run, I see the USA declining as an imperial power.
