No, we are stuck on the idea that the United States is a deliberative society, built upon layers and branches of government that check each other, and at times hinder the wants and desires of the others. We are an imperfect government/society, and that's a good thing.

As for David's platform....

"I will Construct a U.S. Merc Military which will hire out to any country that is willing to pay. As long as they don't target U.S. allies.
(The U.S. People can also vote for an attack on any country.) "

You should read some Machiavelli. What the hell would prevent a merc military from turning on us? If their only allegiance is to the highest bidder, how can they truly defend the United States Constitution....?
