We at USdemocrazy like to believe we are above all that marketing-consumerism- hullabaloo. Still, we are suckers for a clever engaging TV ad.

Back from exile. Forcefully removed leader of Honduras returns; the world holds it breath.

Wild times as President. Personal pressures,  a drunk pizza craving Boris Yeltsin and more were part of Clinton’s time in the oval office.

We at USDemocrazy get good use out of our TV remote.
