Democracy: A political system for choosing and replacing the government through free and fair elections. Protection of the human rights of all citizens. A rule of law, in which the laws and procedures apply equally to all citizens.
… Does this apply to all or just those facing in the same direction wearing the same stripes?
In a democracy the poor will have more power than the rich, because there are more of them, and the will of the majority is supreme. Aristotle
A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine. Thomas Jefferson
There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest.
– Elie Wiesel
