The issue with democratic systems versus a republic or a constitutional monarchy, whereas there is a Magna Carta, or otherwise any guaranteed protection of the people's rights is that it can be voted away to a majority.

An unelected king that has total control over his subjects with no restraint of power or protection for the people will make none the difference but that in a democracy that person was elected to have total control over his subjects.

The disadvantage, or advantage, of a democracy, is that the majority will always rule over the minority. Regardless of there protected rights.

timofeeve [1]
I think Christopher Columbus should be considered a hero. because he risked his life to explore the unknown for his country tho he didn't have anything to do with finding America the fact that he was actually brave enough to go out there and explore was pretty brave. when I say he dident have anything to do with America read this \/


- His intentions weren't to discover the Americas (which were already discovered by Leif Ericcson and others), or to prove the Earth was round (Which has already been proven long ago, and despite popular belief, even the Bible says the Earth is round.)

- He thought that the Carribean was the Spice Islands. He eventually realized that this was the Americas, but even on his third visit, he still thought he was somewhere close to India or China.

- He only landed in the West Indies and in South America. He never sat foot on the continent of North America, and he has absolutely NOTHING TO DO WITH THE UNITED STATES!-from debate.org
