A "free" country that, nevertheless, does seem it's okay to tell other
countries who to vote for, or who to elect, and when coercion tactics don't
work, places that country's *DEMOCRATICALLY* elected President on the Black
list?

How does that fit into the picture you just painted?

(I'm talking about President Kurt Waldheim in the 80s, and J�rg Haider quite
recently, of Austria - albeit the 'Nazi' allegations towards President
Waldheim have been disproven multiple times, he's still on the Black List
and unable to visit the US).

A "free" country?

It's precisely BECAUSE of what they have been through that such laws exist -
maybe if America had a similar experience, it would understand, instead of
preaching from an armchair.

I don't disagree on that point, I do disagree on preaching freedom, but not
practicing it.
