			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Foreign policy would make more sense to such a large group of people if we could reliably often discuss it using <a href="http://lynch.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2009/07/13/jay_z_vs_the_game_lessons_for_the_american_primacy_debate" target="_new">rap feuds as examples</a>. Tongue could be firmly planted in cheek here, but Marc Lynch makes a couple of really good points. </p>

But the limits on his ability to use this power recalls the debates about U.S. primacy.  Should he use this power to its fullest extent, as neo-conservatives would advise, imposing his will to reshape the world, forcing others to adapt to his values and leadership?  Or should he fear a backlash against the unilateral use of power, as realists such as my colleague Steve Walt or liberals such as John Ikenberry would warn, and instead exercise self-restraint?
</p></blockquote>
<p>Is Marc Lynch the Kai Ryssdal of FPM?</p>
