Personally I don’t give a crap what most Ecuadorians want. I only care about American interests. If most Ecuadorians support anti-American communists, then they are my enemies and I don’t want them to get what they want.

Do you feel the same way about the rest of South America? Maybe the right course of action would be to invade Venezuela, Ecuador, and Columbia and any other country which doesn't want what you want? Why even allow their citizens to exercise democracy if it doesn't result in the outcomes that benefit American interests? The Romans installed governors in their foreign territories, as did the British in theirs. Perhaps the United States should simply declare South America as their territory, deploy troops, and protect their interests? Sound good?

Defending the democracy of foreign countries is America’s job now? Including our enemies? Not in my opinion. If they don’t want their sovereignty violated, then they shouldn’t decide to be our enemies.
