Answer:
This passage is true, and reflected the dominant mood of the creole elites during the period.
Explanation:
In Latin America, elites were more identified with the metropoli, as they justified their economic dominion over the popular classes with the authority of it (the status quo). For that, it was a more conservative class, and it was not until it seemed that the European monarchy turned to a more liberal standing (which was what happened in Spain in 1820) or the fact that the weakened metropoli could not guarantee it's interests (the case of Brazil and Portugal) that these elites decided to side with the independence movements, but always maintaining the conservative, rigid and stratified status quo, not a liberal and democratic revolution.
A democratic style of leadership is useful when all team members "<span>do not require supervision". This is mainly because for a democracy to work, each individual needs to be responsible enough to make informed decisions. </span>
It's honestly quite disrespectful to our Nation. And the whole fact that people would do that is wrong, in my opinion of course.
