The author argues presidents and secretaries of state overdo world travel to build “warm relationships.” Wilson’s Versailles mission failed as George Clemenceau and Lloyd George pursued national interests.

The piece urges repudiating the cult of personality and returning to routine diplomacy based on interests.
