President Bush There is a deep vein of truth to be found in Iraq. The Iraqi people are the descendants of the people that have brought us civilization. I say, help protect them but stand clear. They are both Arab and Muslim, and they will show US how it should be done.

I believe that because God is good, there will always be more good people in the world, than there are evil people in the world. Have you ever asked yourself why America has been so spectacularly successful is such a short period of time? Is it because every single piece of our money says, “In God we trust” on it? Or is it because we are passionate believers in our democratic government? I say it is because of both, and that God has blessed us because of it. IMO, when the majority of people that are good are given a true choice, they can identify the evil, and safely remove it from any position of power, or change a deed which turned out to be incorrect or evil. Because evil is elusive and can sometimes hide from the people, it is not always a perfect system in the short term, but the people are always correct in the long term. It is democracy that has directly lead to America being so successful IMO. Democracy is not the only system, but I believe it is the best system. I also believe Winston Churchill when he said, “Democracy is the absolute worst form of government, except for all the others.” The definition of “evil” from Webster’s Dictionary. evil (adj) 1a: not good morally b: arising from actual or imputed bad character or conduct IC
