“Democracy used to work. Let's hope it will again.”

No. Republicanism worked. Democracy has always failed. America's Founding Fathers knew that, and chose a Republic over a Democracy.

One of the few political writers who liked Democracy was Karl Marx. Yeah, that guy. Marx correctly stated that he liked Democracy because it is only one step away from Totalitarianism.

Think Chavez. Think Putin.

The Democratization of the US has gotten us to where we are now.

Bring back Republicanism, or add Obama’s name to the list of Democratically-elected dictators.
