McCain speech on CFR website:

“We cannot build an enduring peace based on freedom by ourselves. http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=3381 of mankind.”

“We should go further and start bringing democratic peoples and nations from around the world into one http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=3345, a worldwide League of Democracies.”

“This League of Democracies would not supplant the United Nations or other international organizations. It would complement them. … If I am elected president, I will call a summit of the world’s democracies in my first year to seek the views of my democratic counterparts and begin exploring the practical steps necessary to realize this vision.

… But if we are to lead responsibly, our friends and allies must see us as responsible nation, concerned not only about our own well-being but about the health of the world’s economy and the future of our planet.…This is not idealism, my friends. It is the truest kind of realism. Today as in the past, our interests are inextricably linked to the global progress of our ideals.”
