There's a difference between the power we have and the power we use. When Obama took office his philosophy as regards military action was "don't do stupid shit," so he didn't want to intervene in Syria, doesn't want to use groundtroops to go after Isis, etc. Clearly he feels like we shouldn't throw our weight around in that way. We didn't want to go to war with Russia to save Crimea. You shouldn't mistake that for the United States being militarily weak. If there's one thing we can do well its use military force, or the threat of military force, or our economic power to get things we want.
You must be joking about the crimea, "save the crimea", russia realy save the crimea, i perfectly know what i am talking about. You should watch less goverment tv like bbc, cnn, bloomberg and others...the situation in the world is not you thinkin about, sorry for my english)
