Would America be a “vibrant democracy” today if France had not intervened in our revolt?

Yes, IMHO, it would be. It might have taken a bit longer, and devolved more into unconventional warfare, but the ultimate result would have been the same. Let me ask you a question: do you think that France was wise to extend this aid? Keep in mind that many would argue that this aid bankrupted France and paved the way for the terror...which ultimately was a model for the likes of Lenin.

Yes, I think France was happy that our liberation due to their intervention came in time for us to return the favor in 1944.

Why is it ever a good idea to postpone liberty and why are you against that cause?

Communism: It’s all the Founding Father’s fault!
