(#5275) Democracy must be the world's system of government!

      Freedom and liberty were the catch words of our American revolution. From that start our form of democracy is evolving to be more inclusive of all of our citizens. Regardless the republican majority right now on our sot so supreme court democracy is evolving and advancing in spite of them. The reason is that democracy is ingrained into our human natures. We are individuals who are required by circumstance to live as a community. So keeping our individual rights while protecting our communities is a constant moderation that seeks to protect both. That is the beauty of democracy, compromise where compromise is wise and good.
     We are still working on creating our more perfect union while keeping our freedom and liberty as foundational. This is what the world needs as well as it's model. Allow for the rights of each person to be equivocal while also protecting the rights of all of us together. There is no other form of government that has been tried that is even close to what democracy offers. So when the tyrants of the world who would pretend that they are the answer to our communities we just need to measure what they do against what democracy does. It isn't even a contest. Democracy in it's better and best form will always be more free and with greater liberty than any despot could claim he or she offers.
     Which is why the battle for Ukraine is so important. Ukraine wants democracy for it's citizens while Russia wants to subdue Ukrainian independence and make them another servant to the tyrant putin. There is no embellishment here at all. Russia is trying to kill off the Ukrainian opposition to them so that Russia can expand not only into Ukraine but further west into Europe. The tyrants of the world are looking to Russia to be successful so that their ability to invade with impunity will be increased. We must stop putin and his tyrannical horde now not only to stop Russia from advancing but to also put all other tyrants in the world on notice that democracy is coming and they had better get with transforming to democracy or find out the hard way like putin!
