And now they have a new enemy -- immigrants from across the border from Mexico and South America. A whole generation of Americans grew up dreaming about communists taking away their freedom and democracy. Sadly, even today a big lobby of Cuban immigrants in Florida keeps those fears alive.

With judgement day upon the nation, the Election Commission’s chairman’s observation that “the result of this election will indicate the direction of [Thai] democracy,” while timely, leaves many questions unanswered as to whether Thailand will move to the good or stay chained to the bad.
