No, this is AMERICA

  Oh, I think I misinferred where you were coming from. From context, I had thought you were advocating that we needed to democracy harder. On reflection it seems more likely you're espousing the viewpoint that USG hasn't been specified as a democracy, so people advocating to democracy harder are asking for nonsense. In some sense that would put us closer to agreement, but from my perspective that viewpoint clings to a prescriptive model that is clearly irrelevant at this time. Democracy has become our national religion, and the mechanics of how the celebrities obtain office isn't so important as the idea that no action is off limits to the court of public opinion, adjudicated by the media.
