Senator Biden talked about the security of the United States, focusing on threats to U.S. national security and what foreign policies would best serve the country. He argued for a policy of “enlightened nationalism” that would recognize the value of international institutions and allies, but not shrink from the use of unilateral military force when necessary, and not yield when American security interests were at stake. The senator also accused the Bush administration of adhering to ideology instead of making decisions based purely on the facts of situations. Following prepared remarks, Senator Biden responded to questions from the audience. close
