America's foreign policy has been implemented well, which is the responsibility of these people, who, like judges, are forbidden from partisan political activity.
The philosophical and political decisions that dictate what that foreign policy says are given by the Secretary of State and eventually the presidential administration over these people.
- MrZongle2 10y ago"America's foreign policy has been implemented well..." I think that's debatable. The Russian "reset" of 2009 comes to mind; it seems like an abject failure from start (the intended Russian word for "reset" on the symbolic button was actually "overload", but nobody at State caught that) to finish. I won't argue that, as with any senior departure(s) in other organizations, there is going to be some institutional knowledge vanishing. And that's never good.
