Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Bill, Bush, Obama, Trump

Johnson, Nixon, Ford and Reagan are dead, too.

So that just leaves Carter, Clinton, and the Bushes... oh, and Obama.

America goes through a lot of resident Presidents.
^ Secret service drill seargents, contribute to accelerated presidental aging.

For compare: From JFK to Trump, Russia has gone through 3 Presidents, and Yelstin is dead.
Cuba: 1
North Korea: 2

Those 3 Countries aren't the best examples for the Democratic Process, no matter what they like to pretend.

America, Canada, Britain, France, most of the first world. I don't agree with all of their policy decisions, but that is democracy in action, it's not failing simply because you don't like the results :)

Aristo, the sooner we hear from you, the sooner this'll end.

Well:

There are people that say Trump lost the popular vote in America.

Britian's ministries are appointed, and not elected. Their President deals more with external affairs and diplomacy.

France has similar, and Russia modeled their system off France.

Not entirely familiar with how the Canadian system actually works... it simply exists... through sheer nice-ness.
-There was a joke that their leader is pretty much Trump already. That or in South Park Trump became Canada's problem instead.

I wish Justin Trudeau was Trump....

Popular vote is not necessarily a good thing (Looking at you Boaty McBoatface and those who made it possible)

Britain is a Democratic Monarchy, much the same as Canada, they still have elections, Ministers are the same as the Presidential Cabinet, all appointed, in a Democratic Monarchy, it simply requires the queen to sign off on it ((essentially) in reality this normally falls to the Governor General (Queens Rep)

I'll avoid france, since I'm not quite as familiar, though it is a Republic from what I recall, and it's Democracy is based off the American system.

London has a mayor.
Paris has a mayor.

Brexit is a perfect example of Democracy in action, and why the popular vote is not always correct, which is why almost all modern democracies, (unlike the ancient greeks) use some sort of representational democracy.

Frankly, Aristo, take your time, I'm having fun :D

Double posting, but yes South Park was entirely incorrect, and I severely hope that you do not get your political information from that show.

Fun fact: in ranking the countries of the world from "freest" to "least free," over half of the Top 10 are actually ruled as kingdoms.

The USA isn't even in the top 30 if I remember correctly.

America hasn't been a real competitor in freedom since 9/11 sadly, as many have said before, that was a pivotal point in history, in so many ways.

That's not to say they were the epitome of freedom before 9/11, but they were much, much better off.

(admittedly this is all from the point of view of a non-american)

No offense taken.

The 90's were pretty frig'n awesome as a kid. Cold war over, no fear of anything, science doing science...

Everything looked like it was gonna end like Star Trek.

Sure, there was the war on drugs, but that just meant if you really wanted 'em, you could live life super-dangerous to such an extreme you risked getting mowed-down by someone with a gun on a daily basis. Quite an exilerating rush if you were into that... such a lifestyle is not for pretty much anyone. So adrenalin-junkies did other, more inspiring things <--- random people are awesome vid go here.

Not to promote substance abuse, but drugs are some of the most inspiring shit in the world, there's a reason that musicians, artists, authors and other creative pursuits all have stereotypes like the alcoholic author, or the coked out musician, the beatles and lucy, etc etc. PLenty of famous artists actually "fell off" once they became sober. Sadly the drugs have a bad habit of killing them early,

And plenty of Adrenaline Junkies use plenty of drugs, for the simple reason that some of them will make you feel, and act, superhuman. It's why when you hear about the meth/crack addict putting his fist through a car window, those in the know are rarely impressed.
