We can't 'export' democracy because we don't HAVE democracy ... The United States is a constitution-based federal republic, NOT a democracy. We can't 'export' free elections, because WE don't have free elections. We can't even 'export' freedom, because we're losing more of our own on a daily basis. We have MILLIONS in prison due to draconian laws (that the citizenry doesn't agree with). We have been guilty of violating our own most sacred freedoms, such as no taxation without representation, the presumption of innocence, the right to a speedy trial, and on and on ... to say nothing of covert and overt torture and abuse both domestically and abroad. We do a p...-poor job of running our OWN nation, yet we presume to tell others how they should run THEIR nation?
