Obviously, this thesis is a joke. Political theory states that a vacuum of power draws new political forces. That power concentrates in the hands of the few. There are plenty of very strong countries that could replace the U.S. over a short period of time. This article also argues that American hegemony is a good thing which isn't an easy thing to prove. I can point to dozens of countries that don't believe that is true - Central America primarily.
Pax Americana is a myth. We are the most warmongering nation in the history of Earth. Since 1776 the U.S. has sent troops abroad to fight over 200 times surpassing the Roman Empire and the Mongols.
