Quote	"Bush could, as Democrats call for, replace Bolton with someone with a more collegial style. But Bolton is the instrument of a U.S. foreign policy doctrine that sees multilateralism as merely one option, to be used only when it serves U.S. interests. Absent a change in the fundamental U.S. approach to the United Nations, changing ambassadors might make little difference."
