Americans Are Tuning Out the World Response

What Author Alkman overall in his article that America and Americans rather ignore rest of the world then become more “globalized” with the rest of the nation.  He simlpy states, “Americans now pay less attention to international affairs, and read less forgeign new than at any time in the last two generations.”  With all the statistics Alkman mentioned through-out his atricle, it’s a huge eye-opener.  America should want to be more involved with what the rest of the world is doing, rather than neglecting them.  Everyone looks up to us, being the strongest and most powerful country in the world.  With our decreasing interest in the rest of the world, it starts with fewer Americans having passports, and the fewer number of Americans traveling overseas; which are just a couple examples.  With all the immigration creating such a diverse place to live here in the U.S., that should more than enough reason to stay in contact and help out other countries who want in on our success.
