Marco,
how about this one: Why are there more Gitanos(per population)than other Spaniards in Spanish prisons? Is it because they are discriminated against?

Americans do NOT believe that American democracy is the be all or the end all.(But, you have to admit that in the 21st century Kings and Queens should not be the heads of states) NO democractic system is the "best." Democracies can learn from each other. But, thank goodness your anti-American rhetoric is not supported by your landslide winner leader Aznar. I thank him for sticking up for Bush against the French and the Germans wishes. We look forward to working with Spain in helping to stop ETA via ECHALAN(not sure how it is spelled)listening device and other American led anti-terrorist training in Spain (which your country wants). And in extending the port in Cadiz so we can fit our bigger naval ships. We look forward to working more with Spanish architects to design our growing populated new cities. (a whole lot of plazas and cafes and tapas bars here now)Did you know that Kansas City Mo. sister city is Sevilla?And they have more fountains there than any other city in the world minus Rome? You see, the bottom line is that Spain and the United States ARE working closer together and learning from each other than ever before. Did you know also that now there are more cultural exchanges between Spain and the United States than with any other two countries in the world? Let's put away the rhetoric, and continue to work very close together to stop ETA today! one imperfect democracy working with another Salud!
