Elections the key
To the editor:
You recently editorialized about the value of international study as a means of promoting world peace. In my view, international experience is a wonderful thing for enriching an individual’s life, but it is almost useless when it comes to the problem of achieving world peace. Although individual ordinary citizens end up fighting wars, they don’t start wars; national leaders do. The way to gain peace in the world is to elect leaders who will look for creative new solutions to the world’s problems rather than resorting to violence, which only results in more violence.
