Despite US funding to help the faltering Fatah party in Palestine, Hamas won virtually all of the 66 seats in the electoral districts. How do you feel about the US �spreading� democracy in the Middle East? What if democracy in the Middle East results in governments that oppose American interests? Would you support a country's right to democratically elect its leaders, even if the leader they chose would place Americans in greater danger?
