english: Ten years ago, however, the promise of democracy seemed to be extraordinary. George W. Bush stood up in his State of the Union address in 2003 and said that democracy was the force that would beat most of the ills of the world.

Džordž Buš se pobunio u svom godišnjem obraćanju Kongresu 2003. i izjavio da je demokratija snaga koja će pobediti većinu svetskih nedaća. Rekao je da, budući da demokratske vlade poštuju sopstveni narod i poštuju svoje susede, sloboda će doneti mir.
