"If you actually believe that, then you don't believe in democracy."

You can know that people have been promised things unrealistically and flat out lied to and still believe in Democracy.

I believe in it the same way Franklin did --

"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic."

"Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become more corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters."
