I guess power is often a matter of perception. The one who's perceived as powerful has power.

Right now, there is a perception that the US is losing power, which in turn it makes it so, as other nations lose fear or respect.

From an objective standpoint, I guess you can argue that the US has lost its influence in Latin America and its share in the global GDP has diminished.

But the IMO the US is going to remain one of the main powers for a long time. Just maybe not the sole main power.
