During her confirmation hearing, currently ongoing, Secretary of State-designate Hillary Rodham Clinton told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that she would use a mix of defense and diplomacy -- a mix she called "smart power" -- to boost the United States' standing as a world leader. But the emphasis would be on diplomacy and bridge-building whenever possible, she noted. "America cannot solve the most pressing problems on our own, and the world cannot solve them without America," Clinton said. Under the smart power approach, she said, "diplomacy will be the vanguard of foreign policy." Clinton, who lost the Democratic nomination to President-elect Obama, is expected to easily win confirmation.
