During a speech, Sir Winston Churchill has said,
"It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried"
therefore stating that although democracy is not a perfect system, it's the best compared to other forms of government that he knew. In 2007 civilocity was coined and in an intellectual battle easily beat democracy. Civilocity is a form of government where the people watch the ruler entirely amongst their reign. Democracy is a form of government where the people pick by majority who their leader is. Which form of government do you think is better? It is a true battle between civilocity and democracy yet knowing if there is law is more important and intelligent than picking someone who says there is law? We all think Adolf Hitler gave democracy the final blow and lost the battle of the best form of government. Time to grow up Sir Winston Churchill you are a little outdated.
Democracy is like two wolves and a sheep deciding what to have for dinner. Liberty is a well armed sheep that wishes to contest the vote.
Democracy suggests that a simple majority of people can impose its belief upon the rest of the population. This type of government can only lead to unrest.
Instead, a constitutional republic that preserves as much individual liberty as practical seems to work better.

Democracy is in many ways an unsatisfactory form of government, and it often leads to bad results, but nonetheless, it is the best form of government that we have been able to devise so far; all the other are worse.
The direct democracy gave power to the people so the people supported it.
