"Anyone who advocates the noninterventionist foreign policy....."

"Anyone who advocates the noninterventionist foreign policy of the Founding Fathers can expect to be derided as an isolationist.  I myself have never been an isolationist.  I favor the very opposite of isolation: diplomacy, free trade, and freedom of travel.  The real isolationists are those who impose sanctions and embargoes on countries and peoples across the globe because they disagree with the internal and foreign policies of their leaders.  The real isolationists are those who choose to use force overseas to promote democracy, rather than seeking change through diplomacy, rather than seeking change through diplomacy, engagement, and by setting a positive example.  The real isolationists are those who isolate their country in the court of world opinion by pursuing needless belligerence and war that have nothing to do with legitimate national security concerns." -Pages 10-11 of The Revolution, A Manifesto
