Yes, America would like to export democracy to the world. Her people think it is a great thing, for has it not brought them wealth? Her rulers also think it is a great thing, because it not only brings them wealth, but it brings them power as well, both at home and in other nations.
The more "democratic" another nation is, after all, the closer the rich and the powerful can work together, the greater the pickings and the booty available, and the less controls there are on their actions. The rich can grow richer and the poor can grow poorer because, after all, the rich think, it's the survival of the fittest.
