Democracy

MOST PEOPLE SAY...

that a democracy is the best type of state or national government. Almost everyone believes in its ideal , even if it is not in full practice. According to W. Lawrence Neuman democracy is a "type of collective decision making or a process by which people reach decisions together that will apply to all.

We know that in its simplest form a demoracy is opposed of dictatorship or monarchy, in other word a one person rule system.

"Democracy is not absolute power to the majority; it also protects the rights of the minorities. Tyrany of the majority OCCURS when a nation tries to assimilate everyone in a common culture or present a strong unified front to an external threat"(Neuman 2005, 34). This quote can apply to the two major concerns in the US government. ONE immigration and TWO war against terror.
