mLine 90:
Line 90: − − Indeed America has been going to rot and ruin since they left Britain. They are so honest the actually write "In God we trust" on their God. During the War Of 1812, we had no problem finding spies, I'm sure Madison himself would have provided information if we'd tried paying him. As Madison himself said, the Constitution's job is to protect the minority of opulent from the majority. I have a cousin out there, paralysed his spine falling from a roof. When he saw the bill he wished he back home where the a civilised government would have not have charged him a penny. Line 113:
Line 111: − + − − − − − − − − The land that now is the US was first settled by England. In a way of speaking our influence on you has been greater than any other nation. Most of your presidents came from an Anglican background. The Queen heads this church. Liberalism is rife in it. Britain historically, even when superseded by America ran its own foreign policy. The special relationship has not been without tensions. Reagan invaded Grenada during his tenure. Nothing wrong with that, great powers like to throw their weight around, Spain and France were no different. Labour party was outraged, Grenada is in the Commonwealth. Equally America opposed Britain's defence of the Falkland Islands. That didn't stop Thatcher. What I find incredible about Americans is that they have this concept of Unamericanism. Keeping slaves might be considered unBritish, but critising the Tories would not. The other thing would be your glorification of military victories. England has always been known as a land of shopkeepers, but when we won at Rourke's Drift we erected a plaque to the brave Zulus who had died there. Will Obama raise a plaque to the Iraqis? We fought sportingly, reluctantly, unlike the Americans, right and left alike, seem to relish killing. We only fought when our hand was forced as in South Africa and Crimea. We may have had our atrocities, the Opium Wars, but your War on Drugs and Terror have cost more lives. The New World seems to have made people more barbaric.

::On October 24, 1945, the U.N. Charter was ratified and sovereign nations became nation-states under the United Nations. The consolidation of these mere states in economic trade regions is still ongoing. The EU model for europe is being followed by the NAU (North American Union). links: http://www.spp.gov/ http://www.nascocorridor.com/ The new north and south borders will be northern Canada and southern Mexico. So, that's a no on Britain to become the 51st State of the US.--[[User:Roopilots6|Roopilots6]] 16:19, 30 April 2007 (EDT)

the reason for people calling britain wuld be that britain has in a way being going on the tracks of the unitited states or vaguely as people describe it '''''''''doing whatever us asks them to'''''''''. i'd say britain may be going on the tracks of the united states but it also has a reason for it because not only was united states a part of Britain at one time but it also has somewhat the the same culture and language. it is this which gives the influence to england to somewhat negotiate with the united states of america. another reason would be that united states and britain have been two allied contries for a very long time especially since united states of america became a very powerful state. these factors somewhat set the base for the reasons for britain negotiating with the united states but we call britain 51state because we don't understand the point that them so well allied it is obvious that they compromise have such a relationship between them, just like us and canada. i would call both of them brothers and good brothers always get along well each other. now if britain is called 51st state because britain is weak and is as also vaguely people say. "taking pro tection from the united states" then let me say that britain is also a first world country and also one of the strongest economies in the world. we might be forgeting that it has he strongest currency in the world. - kanishka(indian)

:::::::I really hope that all Americans do not hold the views that either the British want you back as a colony, or that we are just going to do whatever you want. We are an independant country, not the 51st state of the US
