All you can name are things America has done in the past, (when america was america, not the socialistic power it is today) besides the aid efforts. That is all past tense, do you honestly think afghanistan had the worst government, and we really needed to spread democracy over there, and free their people? Well I will tell you that there are numerous countries that need that more, just so happens they do not have things like OIL! But Obama got voted in because he said he was going to get our troops out, he has really done a great job with that aka deploying 30,000 more troops in the first two months of his office. The people no longer have a say. It is all about who has the most money and power, those are the only ones with say in this country. This is not my country that I grew to love.
