Democracy: The term originates from the Greek δημοκρατία (dēmokratía) "rule of the people"
Gurey, the balance and check system is not part of a democratic system. You are right, it is the republic system! Democracy is ALL about "people" ! People vote and they feel like they are part of the system. Whether ---the rigged elections of the Africans or eastern Europe democracy elections of corrupt manipulations, or the Western like US elections where special interests and oligarchs decided and not the people. (Basically the people are bought because they are poor)
IN the future---which is sort of beginning now--the true definition of democracy will arise. The establishments will be kicked out and true demo will take form. For instance- Obamas election was a big surprise and the beginning of that era of democracy just like In France---the revolution was the beginning of French Democracy!
PS Unfortunately Bernie and Trump are part of the democracy revolutions, but---establishments like Hillary are NOT going any where soon!
By the way: Arabs are not meant to have democracy. That's right. Arabs don't have individuality syndrome like the west have. With Arabs--it is a group mentality vs individual. Somalis included----Look Somalia---there was peace when Baare abused them for many years. The same with Gadafi,, and Sadaam ! Muslims --Somalis included need a strong leader who will karbash them and treat them like slaves in order for them to respect him. Arabs and Somalis need a leader based on fear and not liberte!
WHat say u on my theory gurey?
