“Too often, the United States has not pursued and sustained engagement with our neighbors.”

Really? What’s the next step past narcissistic megalomania. This man thinks the calendar began sometime in what used to be August 1961, prob’ly in a hay rick somewhere in Kenya.

That is why I look forward to pursuing a new Energy and Climate Partnership of the Americas that will help us learn from one another, share technologies, leverage investment, and maximize our comparative advantage.

What do these banana republics have to share?
