This is demonstrably false, as in this very century, "democratic" governments
have been known to slaughter millions of their own citizens.
Even if the people rise up _en masse_ and elect someone new, they have no
guarentee that their new representative will do anything s/he promised. For
example, two years ago, Americans elected a bunch of radical, fire-breathing
new legislators who were going to reform campaign finance and institute term
limits. <chucklesnort>
