<<Marcos, I'm in favour of regime change in the USA. They seem to be against me instead of for me, so it's time
for a change.>>
The customary thing would be to consider moving to Canada or buy a residence in Mexico, its easier than getting the Government to move.
There are 525 successful and powerful people in Washington who have very few problems working under Georges heavy-handed regime. All they have to do is pass some Legislation and George has to sign it and take all the credit. Tax increases, tax decreases, punitive tariffs on Canadian lumber, immigration policies, defense budgets- all the things our citizens are so proud of.
, Now if you want a Clinton back, you are welcome to him/her . He was so well liked that In 1995 the Republicans picked up 56 seats in the House and have led ever since. It wouldn't hurt to pad that advantage

Yes, a Bring Back Bill campaign, he'd make a fine First Gentleman .... although, he wasn't such a thorough gentleman was he, gentlemen do not kiss and tell .... instead of saying no i did not have sex with that definition of 'is', a proper refined gentleman would simply say it is none of your business gentlemen, and vive le difference

He did not go to war without reason and allies both, this is true .... was it his admin that started suppressing the kiwi lamb? ... i guess so, you'd recall .... well it wasn't until halfway through the first year of Bush II that his 'Commerce' department started driving our forestry into the ground, so we do not hold this over Bill

'King George II doesn't seem to be in favour of democracy'

This is actually their third George, they had one back in the 1700s, some bandit rebel they stuck on their one-dollar notes, for want of a personage more uplifting, one presumes .... so i guess you know what that means, eh, to be under a third George, a few logs short of a load and can't really even shpeake zee könige's englisch ... Wolfowitz = Lord North? ... uh-huh, frightening isn't it ..... they will have tough times, and we too will have tough times, until they can get themselves a Victoria [pomp be upon her] with a functional Disraeli

We must begin progression through the series of Reform Acts, and soon .... Pitt, oh Pitt where artst thou, slay that bugger Palmerston quick before he does damage, each male landowner must have a vote in matters crucial to his affairs, for it is only right, and besides there are more of us than there are of you, so listen up pilgrim

Didn't know what michael was talking about, the lights getting turned out in NYC, but check out the front page news here - cbc.ca ... big blackout in the east of NA ... east coasts are generally strange places, i find, intense population densities, in all senses of the term - news.bbc.co.uk

He was protectionist though - cutting imports to stop the whining USA sheep farmers from bleating about competition.

Now Maurice, we've been over this before. Clinton's ban on New Zealand sheep was about as effective as your silly attempts to ban people from this thread. In the face of legal action he dropped the protective measures and now all the mutton I see in our supermarkets is from New Zealand.

The real problem is that folks in this country just don't eat lamb and mutton. If you want to sell in the US, you guys need to set up some sort of big-time marketing op like the deBeers people have for diamonds. Imagine a commercial with an attractive young lady in a slinky black cocktail dress, dining by candlelight, romantic music, an Aztec gold pendent dangling you know where, daintily stuffing bits of braised lamb between her full, luscious red lips... You get the idea.
