Sarah Palin wants to spread democracy to other countries. Congo was better off as a colony of Belgium. Right now the people don't even care about democracy or independence. They care more of the killing to stop, that they can eat, live without fear, have their health and see their young ones get education and that the school to reopen. Forget democracy since being a colony was a better life. I was being sarcastic and didn't make that clear. Belgium did a lousy job of getting the Congo ready for independence. Belgium did not do a great job as a colonial power.
