I'll bite on the U.S. part. The democratic changeover *is* different. It's not all the way the way someone who is lefty would like, true. But it's an end to things like taking away Habeus Corpus.
In fact, I didn't vote for the Dems because I thought they were the best or because I thought getting out of Iraqw would be easy or a solution to anything. I voted strictly on not living under a regime that's slowly edging towards totalitarian.
The Democrats may be corrupt, liars, ineffective, what have you, but they are not dictators.

Everything else we want us up to the people.
