"I say "what good is a ballot box"! "

Sometimes it would seem as a more sage person than I put it so well: 'Democracy is the worst governing system....except for all of the others."

I'm guessing the people in Cuba, Iraq, and the former soviet union could give you a good tongue lashing for the question. However I do share your frustration with our pols.
