         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>World view</strong>: get the people to come together to make the world a better place<br><br><strong>Beliefs:</strong> if<strong> </strong>the U.S. begins to work cooperatively to address global problems then other countries will too and it will unite everyone<br><br><strong>policies: </strong>To work together to achieve a globally sustainable balance of development and environmental preservation in exchange for cooperation on environmental issues, forgive the debt poor countries owe us<br><br><strong>Arguments for:</strong> giving more power and authority to international organizations does not make us powerless. On the contrary, by bringing nations together to solve common problems, we will gain the strength to deal with the world's challenges<br><br><strong>Arguments against:</strong> by handing over power we will loose much of our international influence, our cooperative spirit to make themselves stronger at our expense.

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br><strong>World View: </strong> Create the entire world to become more involved and help each other when times get rough<br><strong>Beliefs:</strong> If  the U.S. starts first to unite with other countries and have everyone become allies so we build together to become one strong united nation/world.<br><strong>Policies</strong>: To maintain a<br>united world we should engage in military action, increase support for international agreements, pursue terrorists through the UN, spearhead international efforts to establish regulations to protect developing economies, and work with others to achieve a globally sustainable balance of development and environmental preservation.<br><strong>Arguments For: </strong>Giving more power and authority to other organizations doesn't make us powerless, this will change the nature of the international system, help boost international trade and strengthen U.S. economy, and strengthening other institutions will anchor Russia, China, etc.<br><strong>Arguments Against</strong>: We'll lose much of our international influence, cooperation could be dangerous, limit our ability to defend ourselves and encourage our enemies, tyrants will have a voice, and cost will be crazy for trying to help other people and put us in debt for what we really need at home.</div>]]></description>
