Fruits of Democracy

It is the force of democracy that has incessantly pushed us toward true equality, albeit in fits and starts. Those who would do away with this imperfect process to install a dictator either fail to understand the obvious power in maintaing said democracy, or would prefer not to have such advances in equality, unmatched power and global influence. Anyone else understands that we improve our process incrementally, and we will one day achieve the vision for the country written into its DNA in the form of a constitution. Autocracy yields destitution, only democracy lifts us from that possibility, even if at times it seems that we are backsliding.
