Soft power....how do we deal with rogue or failed states? Read: Benjamin Barber. Clark has said on occassion that we should increase foreign aid to match military budget dollar for dollar. Clinton has been attacked by the reichwing for advocating much the same approach. Build schools and hospitals not bombs. Barber puts forth the policy that until people have a voice in their government, their only recourse will be to violence; therefore, it is in our best interests, and theirs as well, to adopt a policy of which encourages democracy and human rights, thus, starving terrorists and dictators of their feast off the poor.
