Thank you for that thoughtful response Raymond. "Can you be more specific about the examples of democracy you see in the Islamic world?" "...the basis of governance in any Islamic country in the world." I was not making the claim that democracy has been a great success in the nations where Islam is the predominant religion. (In fact calling any existing country "Islamic" is an insult to the religion of the Qur'an. I believe democracy is a fundamental requirement of an uncorrupted Islamic Uma. I am hopeful. In fact, I don't see any hope for the world in its current state until the scholars of Islam revisit that point. It would cause a reformation of the noble religion that was established nearly 1400 years ago. I will find the post in which I laid out the rationale and link it for you.
