#2 As Francis Fukuyama, Huntington’s former student and protege, wrote last month: “The intellectual challenge is to see whether it is possible to back away from globalization without cratering both the national and the global economy.

#3 For many elites, these concerns are secondary to participating in the global economy, supporting international trade and migration, strengthening international institutions,promoting American values abroad , and encouraging minority identities and cultures at home.

This states that elites are all about international values and economics with a side of and minority culture NOT about anything that can be called American.

This is the basis of the Obola ilks fundamental transformation.
