Treat others how you wish to be treated....
Did we congradulate the Nicaraguans on their election of Mr. Ortega last week? Or what about congradulating the Bolivians on the election of Mr. Morales last year? And do you think we will congradulate the Venezuelans when they re-elect Hugo Chavez next year?
Just as most Americans do not respect democracy in these other countries, most foreignors do not respect our choices unless they agree with them. Perhaps that is just human nature.
