Democracy wasn't invented by the founding fathers. If you showed an Ancient Athenian what we in the West call democracy, they would laugh in your face. Western democracy isn't rule by the people, it's rule by an elite, who happen to be popular. In Athens, every citizen could freely walk into their assembly and make laws at any time of the day.

Your RfA was a genuine debate, with lots of reasons to support and oppose - and thankfully it still passed.
