the divine right of the majority.

I reject the premise of this article. I believe that a better statement would be, "the divine right of the educated elite". They don't believe that they need to listen to the majority and they are working hard to warp the electoral system so that the elite can be elected without the support of the majority.

Good point. The left-wing, and a few others, secretly believe in a Plato-like "philosopher king," and that the ideal political system is a "benevolent dictatorship."
