LOL, oh celldog, you so crazy.
Mexico has rigged elections just like you guys, I DO know what it's like to participate in what you "have" (sic) secondly, I live two blocks from the US, so, I know more about your country and mine than you.
oh, and I hate to break it to ya, but my 12 million ( which is like 1% or 2 % of the country, not that much really for a starving country) don't go over there for the awesome democracy, they just want money, the same as big bussiness owners in the US move entire companies overseas and outsource everything.
money. because democracy, like a picture of an eagles next to a flag is nice, but It don't pay the bills.
