The United States is able to join the Commonwealth of Nations even if it is a republic. A republic has been allowed in the Commonwealth since the London Declaration, with the interpretation that republics who do not answer to the Monarchy of the UK are still allowed to join. The US has a long history with the UK, Canada, Australia, and other Commonwealth Countries including the Special Relationship between the UK and the US. Canada is the one of the USs largest trading partners and the US is Canadas largest. Both countries have the longest unmiliterised border in the world. The US and the Commonwealth would both benefit greatly from the US joining, both in defense and in economics. Britain gave birth to the US and toady the US and the UK have one of the tightest alliances in the world. We have close cooperation politically and militarily and on intelligence matters. Why not make it official? As an American, I find it strange that we are not a member. America, the UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are arguably already a unit. They are militarily, financially, culturally, and security a group that dominates world politics. The Queen is as popular in the US as she is in the existing members. It would be a great way to cement the Anglo sphere into a group as other nations like China grow. India is a member and would be a great way to help get American companies more involved in that enormous market. After all, we are still a child of England, as well language and cultral is bonded. We would have a more calmer society and be respected by all, look at Canada, theyre still in the Commonwealth, in fact, they are a Commonwealth Commonwealth realm, and they dont have the issues that we have regarding violence. I think we should return to the British way as it would benefit us. God Save the Queen!
