People are criticizing Obama for not showing more Leadership on todays world crises... Those people dont understand the concept of leadership. Leadership is not about doing everything yourself...(thats taking charge, which is not the same thing...). People see Syria, Ukraine, Iraq, South Sudan, CAR, and other places burning, and they look to the United States and ask, What are you going to do about it? And, it seems, Americans have gotten so used to doing something about it, that we feel as though we arent exercising Leadership unless we enter the fray -- and, to most Americans, that means -- first and foremost -- sending-in the military. That kind of leadership (taking charge) hasnt been working very well for us -- or the rest of the world -- over the last three or four decades...Its time for the United States to exercise a better, wiser kind of leadership...A kind of leadership that MIGHT include military intervention, but not automatically -- and not first -- but only when absolutely necessary, and with restraint. When it comes to a problem like ISIS, the US should not be shoving the regional powers aside, saying I got this. The US should let the regional powers deal with ISIS first, and the US can provide support where necessary (and focus on protecting the homeland)... Real American leadership in todays New World, should make solving problems -- rather than creating them -- the top priority...And that starts with not repeating the same mistakes that created ISIS in the first place...
