Democracy is NOT as simple as purchasing votes

Democratic Truths from the Oldest Democracy

America is a genuine secular democracy

There are no daily bomb explosions, seperatist activities, riots, strikes, police firings & baton charges in America.

America has the SAME laws and benefits for all religious, racial, language & ethnic groups. Democracy means "The People" in total, not sectioned into groups. Different laws & privileges GAURANTEE violence.

Democracy does NOT mean buying votes from religious, racial, language & ethnic groups by offering them concessions and benefits. Any politician in USA that entices votes from specific groups by offering concessions will be debarred.

Antelop,
I am not sure if you are a ABCD or or a native?Yes ,there are explosions,there are shootings,there are rapes and all kinds of crap,there is very high divorce,there is very high adultery,and drug usage,They also do not want other countries to progress and use their power to twist global laws.
in US-you have caucus,no gun control,and many other things,they are the only country to have used nukes,have a defence manufacturing which drives the economy and needs to go to war every few years(see last 50 years aka cuba,korea,afghanistan,vietnam ,mogadishu,kosovo..)
I like America for all its goodness,I also like world peace.Dont preach American democracy which is not ruled by democrats but republicans,and allows a winner to lose (al Gore,it happens only in US)
