Does the United States still believe today that it has a special destiny in the world? How do these beliefs affect how we act in the world and what other countries think about us?

Yes, we believe that it is our "destiny" to promote democracy around the globe. For some countries this makes us noble, for others we are a villain. Often the pursuit of democracy can be used as a figurehead for seeking profits in war
