Such blatant redbaiting.

A better formulation of democracy , legitimate government, than Brad D.'s is the working class as the ruling class, the dictatorship of the proletariat. Korea may not be quite there but they are as close or closer than the U.S. , so the U.S. has no legitmate basis to wage war on Korea based on U.S. having a legitimate government and Korea not having a legitimate government.

The important point here is that Brad D's use of the famous U.S. formulations is coupled with his justification of U.S. imperialist aggression against Korea, which aggression makes a total mockery of even the old U.S. formulation of legitimate government, because the U.S. warrior presence in Korea is the least legitimate, less legitimate than the North Korean government, presence in Korea. In other words, the North Korean government meets the Brad D. formulation better than Brad's D's U.S. government does in Korea. So , get the fuck out of Korea, America, and quit trying to tell the Koreans what a legitimate government is, Americans Brad D. and Justin.

All Power to the People ( We, the People, that the founding white fathers had a glimpsing thought of).

So, Charles, your alternative? Legitimate government represents the interest of the working class as understood by the unitary Central Committee of the only permitted Party, dissenters will be jailed or exiled or shot as counterrevolutionaries, just like in the democratic paradise, North Korea? If not that, then what? --jks

How can you tell which governments are legitimate? It's pretty easy. Legitimate governments:

(a) derive their just powers from the consent of the governed...

(b) secure life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for their citizens...

CB: In other words, the Founding Great White Fathers of the United States defined what a legitimate government is, and the American war machine will make damn sure that the whole world abides by the Great White Fathers' orders.
