No ZacS:
It is:
Democracy is great, but only when the people involved in the democratic process are
not coerced and blinded by both insane intolerant terroristic views promulgated by their extremist authoritarian leaders and by a probable fear that those extremist leaders will execute them in the middle of the night should they "vote" against them.
Do you really think it is a true democracy when these overriding pressures exist? For example, do you really think a true democracy exists in Venezuela under Chavez?
