Bush and the emergence of the "post-rhetorical" presidency, presidential signing statements and the imperial presidency, Bush's legacy on social security, Bush's use of the tools of executive federalism, Bush's foreign policy as evangelical realism and not neo-conservatism, the philosophy of Bush's "Freedom Agenda," American foreign policy in the Persian Gulf, and overcoming the Bush Doctrine of the virtues of American primacy and the country's right to wage preemptive war. In his remarks to The Washington Post, Al-Assad hoped the administration of President-elect Barack Obama will stop the doctrine of preemptive wars and play a direct role in the peace process instead, namely backing the direct Syrian-Israeli talks and work with Syria to stabilize Iraq.
