America is facing a profound triple crisis: the economy is in disarray, the government has been transformed by the Bush presidency, and the U.S. is deeply involved in endless wars. These pressing issues threaten all of us, Republicans and Democrats alike, and as citizens we bear the ultimate responsibility. What can we do to fix America's problems before the damage becomes irreparable?

Andrew J. Bacevich is Professor of International Relations and History at Boston University and a retired U.S. Army Colonel. He is the author or editor of several books, and his numerous articles, essays, and reviews have appeared in a variety of scholarly and general interest publications including The Wilson Quarterly, The National Interest, Foreign Affairs, Foreign Policy, The Nation, The American Conservative, and The New Republic.
