Very bad. We can't DO that kind of thing and expect the
results we won here in 200 years of fighting. Kaplan explains
it (in his book "The Coming Anarchy") far better than I can.
Exporting "democracy" doesn't work, period.

And besides, when we do, we export dictatorships. Central
America is rife with US-installed potentates. Where *did*
Hussain come from, anyway?

The absolutely best thing for America to do is lead by
example. Not by invasion.
