Panel on Principles of Foreign Policy: a live recording of the “Shield of the Republic” podcast (@ShieldPod)
“There are so many things to say about Washington, but one of them is just his massive amount of common sense. And I think often there’s a temptation to try to frame foreign policy as some kind of esoteric craft when a large part of it is common sense, and actually simplicity, more than subtlety.” - Eliot Cohen (@EliotACohen)
“That is an under-appreciated quality in our presidents that we don’t value enough … the temperament of a decision-maker who understands that they don’t know everything, that they can’t know everything, and have enough self-confidence to be able to take a variety of expert opinion and weigh it out and make judgments.” - Ambassador Eric S. Edelman

A good time talking with @ajkeen on his podcast @KeenOnAmerica. No softballs, and some quirky - but penetrating - questions, which made for a great conversation about my new book #TheStrategist coming out on October 20th with @PrincetonUPress @CSIS
