Who Will Replace the Aging Empress of Europe ?

Former secretary of state Henry Kissinger famously asked, “Who do I call if I want to call Europe?” Since the fall of Napoleon Bonaparte, that question has been unanswerable because Europe never spoke with one voice. For the last dozen years, of the many calls that have to be made the first call was always to German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

The European Union has its presidents. France’s Jean-Claude Juncker is president of the EU Commission and Poland’s Donald Tusk is president of the EU Council. Juncker has a great deal more power — the Commission has regulatory and legal authority — but neither is as powerful as the real leader of Europe....................So we’re back to Kissinger’s question. Who does an American president or secretary of state call when they want to talk to Europe? For the foreseeable future, they’ll have to call Vladimir Putin..........To Read More....

My Take - The Iron Chancellor of Germany in the 19th century was Otto Von Bismarck.  He said unlike America, that really was a county with a shared culture and language, Europe was nothing more than a geographical designation.  Nothings changed, except the EU will end soon and will have proved to be disastrous for ethnic Europeans. 

Europe is doomed, economically, socially and demographically.  When it's all over Europe will be a third rate continent rife with civil strife.  Bankrupt and begging the U.S. to bail them out. 

Let's get this right: We don't need Europe. We need to let them suffer the consequences of their arrogance.  The Bretton Woods era is coming to an end....get over it!
