What makes you think C, D and E wouldn't become another A+B?

That's the rub. They might. I'm not ruling it out.

The only way to make sure c, D, or E introduces reforms is for us Americans to not get cocky. We'd need to keep on their asses. Eternal vigilance, you know.

But that's the other rub I pointed out: Most Americans are stupid weak little sheep without the backbone to do this.

Seriously, Egypt is more deserving of a democratic republic than we are. Oligarchy happened because we collectively let it happen.
