America needs to become a p0peacemaker not a peacekeeper. Our leadership needs to learn how to acknowledge that by using our leadership abilities to create peace instead of war we will be viewed in a more positive light. Currently we are viewed as bullies. Whether or not we agree with that assessment is beside the point. In order to gain world respect we need to give the rest of the world respect.

People to stop being convinced we are a negative influence.
Look at China in the news over the last week. You think we are bad. Not even close the that type of stuff.

It's not a matter of change half as much as it's a matter of attitude.
Being humble without being loud about it are two different actions people just never understand.

We have to get rid of the idea that we are the rulers of the world. We have to quit meddling in other peoples business for our personal gain.
Read some Chomsky.

I think that's an overly ambitious question. If America could even slow the pace of it's own collapse, that'd be a great thing.
