I'm reading Fareed Sakaria's book right now. He's gushed about Mexico and how its per capita income level will guarantee democracy and constitutional liberalism. Not a word about how the income is distributed or how a lot of it is due to drugs.

Mexico is a democracy, alright, but I'd call it a narcodemocracy along with its narcocorridos, narcojueces, narcodinero, etc. Definitely not a good basis for constitutional liberalism a la UK.
