True democracy should guarantee one person, one vote,” Rangel added.

Someone inform the gangsta that we live in a Republic.

“One person, one vote” soon evolves into “one person, one vote, one way, one time”, and the party put into power just says, “Thanks, we will take it from here.”

Kind of how the “democracy” of the Soviet Union was established. That, of course, and the power that grows out of the barrel of a rifle.

A pure democracy is no virtue, and soon expires of its own excesses. Democracy is but one ingredient of governance, and should be used sparingly, like salt in a recipe.
