what is the united states economy going to grow at this year? >> there are no oracles in economics, and it's still a pretty uncertain world, but i think that conventional view of the u.s. now is that we're growing between 2% and 3%. i think that's a realistic outcome as long as we see more improvement in europe and as long as we don't see a lot of risk come from iran on the oil front. >> that scenario of 2% to 3% growth seems a little different from what ben bernanke thinks growth is going to look like. have you read the statement the fed put out, and it was a very bearish statement. to be willing to almost guarantee that rates will be kept where they are until the end of 2014 suggests they don't see any growth of any robust growth for a long time. are they wrong at the fed? >> i'm not a forecaster, so my view is not worth much, but if you look at the -- both the fed's forecast and the consensus of private forecasters in the business community among economists, people are pretty close clustered in that area, but it's still very dependent on how

and as a secretary of state and i did say over and over again that the united states was an indispenseable nation and i believe it. i was in enough meetings to know if we were not a catalyst, not a lot happened. but indispenseable to me never meant alone and never meant we were you ubiquitous. but because we are rich and powerful, that we have an obligation to deal with the axis of evil of poverty and disease and health issues and globalization and economic issues. those are the axis of evil. so i'm very troubled by a lot of the things that are happening in the united states now, and that is a lot of what i write about in the epilogue. concerned about the events in iraq, concerned about our lack of activity on getting hold of the proliferation of nuclear weapons. concerned about our lack of interest in anything but military activities. and concerned generally because i go to so many international meetings about what has happened to the reputation of the united states. a country that i was so proud of and when i got to sit behind the sign called "united states," nothing made me prouder. and
