I was having coffee this morning with a friend and he remarked that almost everything people predict won't happen. It's the unexpected -- war, an epidemic, natural disasters -- that end of grabbing all our attention, resources, political capital. Highly recommend H.W. Brands' new book "America First" about the years between 1939 and Dec. 1941 when Lindbergh and others were urging isolation.
