Just one thing to point out and remember:

Capitalism  and Democracy AREN'T the same thing. China (for instant) is becoming capitalist ,but remaining Communist in government.  I heard one economist say that the present econic woes is because Capitalism bought out Democracy.

If that refers to America, it's not true. America is a Republic, NOT a Democracy. We elect Electors in the Electoral College to elect the president, Not one man:one vote, but more like one man's vote=.000001 Electoral  Vote, or there abouts. If the Elector follows the will of the people. Electors are Selected from the professional political class of Govenors, ex-Presidents, and Senators.

Democrats are on the left side of the house. Left-wing usually applies to Democrats.
Republicans are on the right side of the house. Right-wing usually applies to the Republicans.
John McCain is moderate Republican who is not representing himself as being a rIght-winger.
Barak Obama is called a Liberal (as is used in common parlance as meaning a left-winger) who appears to be a standard Democrat.
George W Bush is a standard Republican, leaning to the right-wing.

This is NOT an inditement of the American system, just my understanding of it, with my support of any candidates removed for clarity of explaination.  We need to use the terms with clarity in these tough times. Language is the only seperating thing that prevents us from understanding each other. :laugh:
