“The United States is not just a great power, but an idea,” write Kristin Lord and Paul J. Saunders on GPS. “Americans like it that way and we are justifiably proud of an exceptional if complex history. Particularly during the twentieth century, moral authority became one of our nations most important strategic advantages, a source of strength that pulled allies closer and proved difficult for adversaries to challenge. The value of this strategic advantage endures today. Losing it could do more to harm American power than any realistic military or economic threat on the horizon – and regaining it could take decades.” globalpublicsquare.blogs.cnn/2013/11/18/the-danger-of-americas-declining-moral-authority/
