defining genuine democracy
by Mikkey Moouse on Jun 12, 2007 03:20 PM   Permalink

Democracy is "the People" in total....when a Politician offers promises to the ENTIRE population, its democracy....as happens in USA & European elections.

When the Politicians offers promisies to certain SECTIONS of the population eg. ethnic, religious, langauage groups etc, then its NO longer democracy....as happens in Indian elections.
