Should the U.S. Use its Soldiers to Spread Democracy around the Globe?

For a very interesting exchange of views on the tension between limited government and the idea of spreading democracy abroad, go here and listen to a panel discussion from a Federalist Society conference. 

My colleague Tom Palmer takes on Bill Kristol of the Weekly Standard, who has argued that American troops should occupy Iraq until democracy is in place there, and perhaps beyond. 

This panel discussion was actually held last November, but the audio has just recently been made available for web surfers. Mr. Francois-Henri Briard of the Federalist Society's Paris Chapter is also on the panel and starts it off. Federal Judge Raymond Randolph moderates. Good stuff here.
