democracy is a bitch huh?

Usually is.

If this were a democracy no "Negro" would ever have become an
African-American, and women would probably never have been given the
vote. For sure, the Civil Rights act would have been an impossibility in
the mid-sixties.

This being a Republic, we have continued to advance -- well, until
television ruined baseball, anyway.
