Ralph Peters: Obama the ‘Good Little Leftist’ Doesn’t Even Realize How Far Left He Is

PETERS: "I do think the right president, the next right president, really could make a marvelous difference if we get the right individual. But in the meantime, yes, there is no question that President Obama has done tremendous damage …

His greatest failure is that he has been unwilling and unable to learn in six years. This is a man who appears to have learned nothing, but obsesses over his original intent, 'Close Guantanamo; make a deal with Iran; respect Islam,' etc. …  

Our image, as Vice Presidency Cheney observed, has really plummeted around the world. We are not regarded as a really dependable ally, as a force. We are not regarded as courageous and without being a bully or a monster or starting wars everywhere as the Left would have it, we have to be trusted by our allies and we have to be feared by our enemies.

If we’re not feared by our enemies, you get the world that Obama has created."
