A question != advocacy.

Emphasis added to help the reader.

Democracy might be globally too dangerous.

... a strict dictatorship of the people might be a better option. Provided that dictatorship is not based upon some medieval superstitious religion of fear.

And now for something completely different, Ben's misrepresentation of what I said:

Again, be very careful before you advocate throwing out democracy.

For the record, were I to be forced to choose at the moment between giving power to you or George Bush, I'd choose Bush. As much as I hate him and he scares me, he hasn't said or advocated anything (yet) that I see as causing irreparable harm to the principle of American democracy. You, on the other hand, have.

Ah yes, I've irreparably harmed American democracy by ..... expressing an idea. An idea so heinous that I dare not repeat it more than once: "People who look forward to the destruction of life on the planet should not be in power."

Unadulterated blasphemy, that's what it is.

Now, I'm done.
