Alternate military history would be cool to read if it had input from people like Robert McNamara and poo poo and not some random dude. Like reading about the planned land invasion of Japan was really neat.

We have reached the point where Americans old enough to remember the Cold War talk about how cool Russia is and how Putin kicks Obama's rear end.

The Cold War is over.

I agree about the cold war, but I still like Obama more than Putin

Obama is a serious for real intellectual who knows politics

Putin is a showboat who knows basically whats going on

America should be overjoyed we finally got a president on the level of Eisenhower
