The people who fly those F-16's, pilot the M1's, and shoot the M16's are all americans. What are the Feds gonna do when half of the military joins the revolt and bases are taken over by rebels?

I find it astonishing that citizens of the world's strongest democracy could have such little confidence in their political system that they consider it necessary to be prepared at all times for civil war. What kind of message are you sending to fledgling democracies in the middle east, eastern Europe and elsewhere? If your system of democracy works then you are protected, in the relatively short term, against unwanted leadership decisions or matters of internal and international policy. If your system doesn't work, perhaps you might consider not stuffing it down the throats of every other nation on the planet?
