  1. The great weakness of "democracy" is that stupid people vote. That's why "democracy" is considered a degenerate transition state between relatively more stable political forms. People DON'T exercise responsible control of their imaginations; so when they hear something salacious they can't help but form a powerful image which will serve them bull shit for a good while to come. Guess what's required to exercise control of imagination. Yep, intelligence. This is the link between IQ and politics. And stupid people are the preferred voter demographic, because they're malleable, strongly suggestible, and easy to motivate, because they discriminate poorly. The LAST thing a career politician wants is an intelligent, informed constituency--no matter what they tell you...because such a constituency would require its politician(s) to be a proper servant.
