You could probably fit India or Germany in there.
But I cant say its gonna get better - as long as China and Russia is on one side and France, UK and US is on the other not much will get done.
India and Germany. Otherwise, no.

Well the US is democratic for the most part at least. What I meant though was that they don't hold humans rights in high regard in some of these countries. Also how can Putin be president for the 3rd term already? Im not 100% sure about this but I remember reading from somewhere that they actually changed laws for him to make it possible. Sounds awfully lot like a dictator to me if its true.
What Im saying is those countries are a security risk themselves, why should they be in a council that upholds national security?
Come on bro. America may not be the nicest kid on the playground, but China is on a whole different level. And Russia isn't far behind.
ALSO HOLD ON ONE FUCKING SECOND.
France would be off the list just as fast as America would. Don't sit there and ignore all the sketchy shit they've done while trashing the US for the exact same things.
'Cuz the US holds them in such high regards, with its giant, unprovoked wars of aggression and subsequent occupations, the spying on everyone (including their own people), the military bases everywhere, the constant murders of other nations' citizens on other nations' sovereign territories, through bombs, invasions, drones, or just killsquads under the cover of darkness, the downright sanctioning of torture, imprisoning people indefinitely without fair trial, promoting slave labour for profit through its criminal system, almost dark-age level ideas about homosexuality and abortion, etc.
Nevermind all the other crazy shit, like how plutocratic and nepotistic the ruling class is.
"Quack, quack, Mr. Bond."
Germany and India, India maybe.
most likely Germany though.
dragonmaw - EU
Where is the poll option for none of the above? What about for no, there should not be any more set places on the security council? What about the current UN is a joke and should be disbanded?
when all else fails, read the STICKIES.
France and the UK out. Germany and India in.
