Indian Government

Indians don't have enough experiences? Who's government was copied when the original articles of confederation failed? Who has over a thousand years of democracy? Who built the network of trails which the Europeans followed and are now our major highways? Who taught the Europeans how to survive in what they perceived as wild and inhospitable lands? How did the Spanish come upon peaceful cities greater in size and scope then anything in Europe at the time? You look from a European Top Down model of government and think we have to have a king or something equivalent. I look at a bottom up government where a chief or leader carries out the decisions of the people. Both the communist and the capitalist are really built on the idea of people as serfs to carry out the work assigned without any regard for the people other then lip service. They are built on the idea of a warlord or all powerful leader which is what the world does not need. Such is also in direct violation of the teachings of the one called Christ.
