La decadencia de los Estados Unidos - De la crisis de 1979 a la megacrisis del 2009 The decline of the United States - From the crisis of 1979 to the megacrisis of 2009 For North American voters, the triumph of the "first Afro American candidate" Barak Obama in the 2008 elections, was a signal that the worst of racial discrimination had been left behind, and ratified that the United States was "the land of the great promise". For the majority of the world what it best showed was an extensive rejection to George W. Bush. As usual, everyone was mistaken. The understanding of a crisis like this within the global context requires comprehensiveness on fluctuations of the domestic and international policies applied by the United States, which although turned into a financial leading nation, was unable to dominate the world through its economic power, and used in its military force instead .
