I am all for closing our borders and leaving the rest of the world to fend for itself for a decade or so ... obviously our "intervention" and billions of foreign aid have not made the world safer ... create fortress America and keep the rest of the world out!!! I freely admit that I am an isolationist because I have seen what we have created during the cold war and beyond!!!
