Expand the Permanent Security Council

Right now, the United Nations Security Council is too heavily Western centric. South America and Africa are not represented. The bulk of humanity resides in Asia, and Asia is only represented by China. So, I propose expanding the Security council, and instead of one veto negating a resolution, it should take two vetoes to ban a resolution.

Which countries should be added? Brazil, Japan and India are slam dunks, as is a rotating seat for Africa--among Africa's main countries, such as South Africa, Nigeria, and Egypt. Brazil dominates South America econonically, and politically--although it is not Spanish-speaking. Japan is an economic power, and a rising diplomatic power. Similarly India. India, is well, a rising power in all respects. It should be on the security council already. Africa obviously needs a seat to have a voice, but no country really dominates Africa (other than the U.S., ha ha). There is a case to be made for a Sub-Shahran Africa, but since two of the countries I have mentioned are in that region, they would have the seat 2/3 rds of the time.

There is also talk of doing away with the U.K.'s and France's seat, and just have a European seat. I won't hold my breath.

Finally, there should also be another rotating seat for the permanent council. This one should be voted on by all the UN members. I envision Indonesia, Turkey, or Germany getting in on the first go around.

So I propose a Security Council with the U.S., Russia, China, UK, France, Brazil, India, Japan, an Africa Seat, and an elected rotating seat.
