Democracy is like hair
It is only right if comes from the inside, when it is put in place by an outside source it is splotchy, patchy, un-natural looking, expensive, and never really take root.

4. What burns me up
is that under "the Great divider" we have acting like Russia during the 50's 60's 70's and 80's, by trying to force our style of government upon other countries. Kinda like trying to force your religion on other cultures. It is everything that we as a free society should be against yet we are leading the way. I miss my Democracy.
