In Strasbourg, France, in April, Obama described this view, asserting that it takes nothing away from America's extraordinary position in the world to say that the U.S. will not always lead. "The fact that I am very proud of my country - and I think that we've got a whole lot to offer the world - does not lessen my interest in recognizing the value and wonderful qualities of other countries," he said, "or recognizing that we're not always going...
