This again is your opinion. Today, they are afraid to let their kids plan in the street. I don't know if I would call that better.
In the larger sense, they never asked for democracy. To say one is better because we brought them democracy is arrogantly saying democracy is something they desired. Not everyone wants democracy which is something most American's have trouble digesting.
Look at Vietnam, we fought to keep democracy in the south yet the people of the south were fighting with the North. And they are happy with a united Vietnam.
Where on earth do you get your news?
You have bad info on Iraq.
You have bad info on Vietnam (to be fair, a "Vietnam post" can't be fleshed out in a sentence or two, but you've started off with a bad premise).
And it's
painfully obvious you have
terrible info on the presidential candidates.
I mean, your opinion is yours, but your sources are factually incorrect on so many levels (remember the "kill him" thread?)
What is unsaid, but implied in your post, is that our system of government is no better than dictatorships, communism, etc.
Now, I'll be the first to agree with you that it isn't our job to impose our way on other lands...
until they become a threat to us...but let's face it: our system of government (not democracy, but a representative constitutional republic)
is a better system than the other major systems we see (such as communism, fascism, socialism, dictatorship, etc.).
Otherwise, we'd see people flocking
from our country. I don't think that's how it happens...do you?
