Very Orwellian. If democracy was the road to communism then how come the FIRST thing the commies did when they SEIZED power was ABOLISH democratic elections? I remember watching some documentary about the lefties who went to fight in the spanish civil war and they were parroting the same B.S. ... they were going there to fight for “democracy” in Spain. Of course once communists get in power, they won’t be caught dead following the “will of the people”. Look at all the liberal activists in California who constantly have judges overturn direct popular votes of “the people” on traditional marriage and cuttings off benefits for illegals. It will be a cold day in hell before Obama decides to have a national referendum on Obamacare.

Please, stop what you are doing....NOW...and pick up a copy of Plato's “Republic”.

Better yet, visit youtube and search for ‘Commanding Heights’.

Your WRONG the commies DO NOT abolish elections.. they abolish the other partys..
Russia always had elections.. as do the Chinese..

The patina of democracy is still kept in any democratic country..
As every democracy does as well keeping the patina of fair elections..
And it all seems quite fair to “democrats”.. who do not think too deeply about it..

You know............. like YOU do..

It’s the “one person, one vote, one time” system.
