About this Quote
This quote by Dianne Feinstein is requiring the United States to take a management role in nuclear nonproliferation efforts. She is suggesting that instead of participating in a new nuclear arms race, the US needs to concentrate on avoiding the spread of nuclear weapons. This would include working with other countries to make sure that nuclear weapons are not established or obtained by those who would use them for destructive purposes. It would also involve strengthening worldwide treaties and contracts that restrict the spread of nuclear weapons. By taking a management function in nuclear nonproliferation, the US can assist to guarantee that the world is a much safer place.

"It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership"
