Tribe Mankind is an interesting notion, Pacifier, but I think alansmithee is right. It's never going to happen without a massive redistribution of political power and wealth, and those holding it will never voluntarily relinquish it. The other problem is with our very nature. Sadly, we mostly don't embody our higher traits, but rather seek power and wealth, in an evident effort to perpetuate our particular brand of DNA. Tribe Mankind, if it could ever be achieved, would be just a bigger version of "tribe USA" (or any other countries), with all of its inherent political and economic problems. Human behavior may someday evolve to accomodate a true world view, but we don't seem to me to be far enough out of the cave yet to get there now, or anytime soon.
