Time for more politics....
America's days as a super-power are numbered. I state this not due to anything that is presently happening, although plenty there leads me to this conclusion as well, but by looking at historical trends.
The duration of Dynasties has shrunk as time has gone by. Egypt was a "superpower" from about 3150 BC until 332 BC. thats almost 3000 years. The Greek Empire went from roughly 2000 BC until 250 BC. (roughly 1750 years.) England was an empire from 1689 to about 1901, about 200 years. These are just 3 examples of an observation I've had, and I can give additional examples if people want them.
I would say the US has been a super-power from about the end of the Spanish-American war (1892) to present... that's a little over 115 years. With China and India starting to flex their muscle and Americans growing tired from being the world's police force how long can we stay a super-power?
