Ignoring for a moment the fact that America IS superior to third world nations, lets probe deeper into the issue. Lets reduce it to its fundamentals...Okay, Stone...Why is it that you see the sort of election fraud in Africa that leads to the sort of violence we are seeing in Kenya? What is different between America and Kenya?
I would have to say that it's a combination of economics, corruption, lack of a well established election process, bad governance, and tribalism that have contributed to the chaos we have seen in Kenya.
