2. Democracy is the best thing going
All of the world's leading free nations use democracy as a political system.

The thing is, with the current situation in Iraq, the US has an obligation to see it through. As much as I personally think we should have never invaded in the first place, the fact remains, we did.

The American paople are behind bringing democracy to Iraq. What better way to accomplish that than to use our own basis as a guide to overcoming the obstacles faced in Iraq?

Tansy has laid out the basic steps, and as a beleiver in democracy, I think it could work.

A federal system is established by writing and adopting a constitution. The several factions representing different areas of Iraq are formed into states, similar to how the US is set up.
