US Presidents: Delighted Leadership plays vital role

Everyone will agree with this comment of time that the United States of America (USA) has been ruling the world unilaterally without facing any bar on implementation of his decision. Here, the decision of American Senate and Congress is a must to be realized in any place of the world. However this uni-power circle can be harmful for all of the world including American people also.  So, balance in US decision will ensure stability and balance over the world, it is believed by the conscious people no doubt.
