I'm not sure the tyranny of the minority that we have now is any better.

  Yeah, the minority of elected officials and bureaucrats. It's kind of sad seeing how little say the voting-populace actually has. Not only are they fragmented per-issue, but the entire establishment is built around not actually getting things done. E.g. Look at how Trump is not actually able to do any of the things he was voted in by the voting populace to do. What is the point of voting him in then? Either you want all of what he platformed on, or you want some of it and you're hoping that that "some" thing that he manages to do is the thing you actually want? It's all bread and circuses, with the media running the circus. Just spend 10 minutes watching one of the big networks and you quickly realize it's all just rhetoric and bias, sprinkled with facts. No one reasons or argues, it's all just emotions and word-juggling. E.g. the recent "undocumented citizens" and "dreamers" double-speak when referring to illegal alien children under DACA. They're children, they're illegal aliens, it's not that hard. Edit. Grammar.
