'The acquisition of Canada this year, as far as the neighbourhood of Québec, will be a mere matter of marching, and will give us experience for the attack of Halifax the next ...'

- Thomas Jefferson, in a letter to Colonel William Duane, Monticello, 4 August 1812 ... as per Colombo's Quotations

The average US national is very much like us, with allied interests really, when you get down to it .... one of those interests, is to beware of too much power in too few hands .... one day they'll be the wrong hands again, just ask the mexicanos, half their nation is still occupied
