mary susan yoshihara, president of the american council on women, peace and security and i loved your first book, can't read to read your second book. my question has to do with foreign policy. the united states has been promoting this revolution abroad in the postwar area and mostly since the sixties. we continue to do so now, not just in u.s. idea and state, but also now in the defense department. what do you see the relationship and how do you see this helping or hurting american foreign policy? have you thought about it and or maybe the reverse might be true that some of our partners, by pushing back, might have some reverse effect on american policy. how do you think? that's a great question and one that i have thought about somewhat. i think it is obnoxious and unsustainable for americans, whether inside the government or parties as part of ngos to go around the world telling people who are almost always browner and blacker people that they should make fewer of themselves and that the solution to their country's problems is to make fewer of themselves. i find the lack of empathy
