Hard to be democratic when polls are considered 'divisive'...
Hard to be democratic when Dr Bob overthrows the majority and I am fairly sure that he has absolutely no intention of changing that...
Think about it Dr Bob.
Do you really want us to decide most / all things
Or do you have certain decisions in mind (ie the ones you don't really care about one way or the other)?People already can and do warn people to be civil.
People already can and do email you with their concerns.
I guess you could formalise that process if you wanted...
It isn't much different IMO.But of course it is a good idea.
Democracy = liberty freedom and justice for all
By definition so it must be true.
Who in their right mind would stand up and say
'Democracy is a bad idea - we don't want to be democratic'Only in America...
