It's a tough spot. If you don't bow to the UN, there are other teams of countries (arab, communist, etc) that will try to overpower you. If you do bow to the UN, you're forced to live under the rule of a larger Democratic Socialist state - which isn't desirable either. Mitt's answer is perfect. America needs to take the lead and to have the most powerful military in the world - not just to keep the most power, but to ensure our sovereignty from a Socialist world government, and to guard the sovereignty of all of the other nations that will join with us in the cause of freedom.
Rest assured, our enemies will not simply stop their pursuit of eliminating the US. When you have other nations trying to take over the world, leaving them alone will not work. Letting them gain a stronghold by killing and by force throughout the world until they're too powerful to defeat on our own turf isn't an answer either. World peace will only happen if America stays militarily strong and independent in its decision-making.
The president asserts that we must move to “a new order that’s based on a different set of principles, that’s based on a sense of common humanity.” The old order, he is saying, where America’s disproportionate strength holds tyrants in check and preserves the sovereignty of nations, is to be replaced.
Based on a different set of principles, that’s based on a common sense really? Such as what?
1. Obama is not LEGAL to hold the office in the white-house according to the law and the Constitution.
2. Obama and the socialist new world order of idiotic maroon of the Democratic Party is full of hog wash crap and totally NO COMMON SENSE in their brain dead way of thinking. It will get people killed without any protection from them or this foul rotting government administration of Obama’s.
3. Based on a different set of principles which are gays/lesbians/black mobs in riots and the demo-crap socialist party of drug-heads/drunks and just plain idiotic maroons with more money that any brain in the head of a snail.
4. This administration wants to be rid of the Constitution for it serves no purpose since Obama claims it is too far out dated for America today.
5. This administration wants to be rid of the United States Anthem for it is full of violence according to Obama (lick busting in air) and replace it with “I like to teach the world to sing” instead. Obama has stated that if it was not for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights he could do more his way of controlling the people aka “his slaves”.
If there's any doubt in anyone's mind who should have been elected President in 2012, they're simply out of touch with reality. What we have now is truly the "enemy within", in one Barack Hussein Obama. Barack Hussein Obama...really?
A young man named Barry Soetoro, chose to change his name to Barack Hussein Obama who now claims to be a Christian. I know of NOone of the Christian faith who would EVER change their name to Barack Hussein Obama withOUT changing their faith entirely to Muslim.
It is stunning how the American people have become so indifferent to who they choose to elect to lead and PROTECT their country and freedoms. And those who somehow think Barack Hussein Obama has their best interest at heart are not worthy of being called Americans. He is NOT America's leader, he is America's enemies' leader.

We should have boots on the ground in Ukraine, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Egypt and Libya right now, and we should be INCREASING, rather than decreasing, our presence in Afghanistan. Simpletons like Obama don't understand that constant wide-spread war is the only way to guarantee peace.

We only need enough to blow up the world once anything more is overkill. So yes we are over funding when we can blow up 1.2 - 1.4 earths. In fact enough to blow up 1 continent would probably kill the rest of the planet anyway.
We are SO not the last or only super power. Russia is still there with nukes and China is too. Just because they don't go around the world doing things doesn't mean they aren't damn powerful. China plays smart conserving its resources and trying to crush us economically. Russia just went on hiatus for a decade. Super power is really just a term made up to make us feel big and important compared to everyone else anyway. So its horse shit.
