My initial thought was that the US is quite isolated already, on a number of issues from proliferation to human rights, an international court, Kyoto etc.

At the same time - the US is quite widely disliked according to one recent survey.

But your points are more complex than that. Your points relate to US international activities... rather than mindset...

Overall, what I think many would like to see is one of two things - that either the US

a) reduces it's political and military activities globally, or
b) increases it's cooperation with international bodies and it's cooperation with
international treaties (and proposed treaties)

I'm basically saying that the US activies and mindset are (currently) widely out of balance. In my view.
