What we have seen is in a sense a repetition of history. As can be seen in terms of the defeats in Vietnam and the Watergate scandal in the late 60s and 70s, which are analogous to the controversial Iraq War and the global financial crisis in undermining this confidence - when Americans don’t feel like adopting this traditional role they struggle with finding an alternative sense of purpose.
