Democracy, Democracy, Democracy...

I really don't get it. Why is the US insistent that any country that does not run on a democracy MUST become a democracy, especially a country that is recognized as an "enemy" of the US, like Cuba.

Said Condi today: "Cuba needs to move toward democracy."

Why? Just because it works in one place doesn't mean it'll work in another. Just because it's good for one country, it doesn't mean it'll be good for another. There are plenty of "friendly" countries out there that have been running just fine on other forms of goverment.

Y'know?
