Churchill tried playing us to support England in WWII. If he had had his way the British would have been in overall command despite the fact that US forces far outnumbered our British allies by the time we committed US forces to combat in the ETO. Margret Thatcher died in Apr 13. Not only did the POTUS fail to send any representatives but we did not lower the flag and she was a staunch supporter of the US. Mandela did nothing for us. He may have been a great leader in South Africa but he did nothing here.
