You're just a garden variety old fart.

Liberal democracy is a form of representative democracy where elected
representatives that hold the decision power are moderated by a
constitution that emphasizes protecting individual liberties and the
rights of minorities in society, such as freedom of speech and assembly,
freedom of religion, the right to private property and privacy, as well
as equality before the law and due process under the rule of law, and
many more.

Such constitutional rights, also named liberal rights, are guaranteed
through various controlled institutions and various statutory laws.
Additionally the constitution of most of the contemporary liberal
democracies protects the rights of individuals and minorities, and
prohibits the will of majority (majoritarianism), by almost eliminating
that rule in practice.

Some would argue that liberal democracy isn't democratic or liberal at
all. They would argue that "liberal democracy" does not respect majority
rule, except when citizens are asked to vote for their representatives,
and also that its "liberty" is restricted by the constitution or
precedent decided by previous generations. They would argue that, by
prohibiting citizens the right to cast votes on all issues—especially
for serious subjects like going to war, constitutional amendments or
constitution abolishment etc.—this turns "liberal democracy" into the
precursor of oligarchy.

Others would say that only a liberal democracy can guarantee the
individual liberties of its citizens and prevent the development into a
dictatorship. Unmoderated majority rule could—in this view—lead to an
oppression of minorities.

The concept of an open society is closely related to liberal
democracies. Since many liberals see democracies with strong statist
reflections through the public choice theory as slow, dogmatic,
conservative and not too apt for change, the liberal democracy contrasts
with what could be called the "statist" democracy in that it emphasizes
the civil society as the engine of its public discourse and development
further.

If people are stupid and uninformed they should have no right to vote.

Now, there's something we definitely agree on.

There would be extremely vociferous opposition to any intelligence
test -- or even the simplest civics test -- as a requirement for
voting, however.

Even a literacy test would be verboten in the insane asylum that
passes for the United States these days.

The reason? Any such test would be condemned as "racist." Certain
races would fail even the simplest test in disproportionate numbers.

So, until reality hits us in the face hard enough to make us abandon
the religion of racial equality (which is just as kooky as
fundamentalism), we will continue with a system in which vicious
gangsters and borderline morons barely able to dress themselves have
an equal vote with honors graduates and brilliant inventors.

Of course, reality _will_ hit us in the face eventually, since the
morons and thugs are increasing their percentage of the population
every hour. And it is, more and more, _their_ tastes and
predilections and "culture" which shape our society, determine its
policies, and select its leaders.


With every good wish,


Kevin Alfred Strom.

Kevin - at the founding of this nation, and continuing on for quite a
while, What percentage of the population do you suppose could read or
write? And did this Constitutionally prevent anyone from being able
to vote?

We used to think the Irish, the Italians and the Poles were thugs
too...
