I'm not against democracy. I'm just saying, by WWI women couldn't vote, most black people couldn't vote (though the legal right was there since the 14th and 15th amendment, white terror and legal disenfranchisement effectively suppressed the black vote) , so you're talking a majority of the population disenfranchised, that's a quite restricted democracy.
