Dale Brown. Warrior Class.

In it, Brown introduces President Thomas Nathaniel Thorn, a Jeffersonian Republican.

Among Thorn’s first Presidential acts is to call back our military from every single foreign base – but he also disbands much of it, which as I said is something not even I am comfortable with.

Brown actually does a good job over the course of that book and the next couple of books of exploring what a non-interventionist foreign policy could look like, and while he disagrees with it and paints it as a bad approach, honestly I like much of the scenarios he paints far better than he does. Like I said, to my mind Thorn’s primary error was disbanding most of the military he calls home. THAT is what would cause us to be less secure – not the act of bringing them home to begin with.
