Unconditionally trumps
....The amalgamated wisdom
.................of........................
105,405,100..franchised
...Voters...who then..exercise...
Their constitutional...privilege
...........To accept it all....
Author's note:
..Bush v Gore...531 U.S.98 (2000) ...the United States Supreme

This would be a great definition for the Devils Dictionary. Great piece of cynical (but true) satire. This is no longer a functional democracy that we have here (if there ever was) .

democracy is citizens' triumph.let it be that way............and stay.
