Wow, what a lot of different answers from Dictatorship (Castro and his poor peons come to mind) to Religious forms of Government. No wonder the world is so screwed up. Democracy is the only form of government that I know of where the people get a chance to vote and have input into how they want their country run. Democracy also keeps religion out of politics. Church and state should be separate in my mind. Canada is a good example of democracy since 1867. Many people want to settle in Canada. One only has to listen to comments from people who have fled to Canada to get away from their dictatorial homeland. I can agree with some comments that Democracy is slow and very hard to achieve in some countries and a good example is Iraq. Even if they manage a little bit of democracy in the next few years, I still feel the people will be much better than the torcherous dictatorship of Saddam. Democracy must be better than a system that surpresses free speech and freedom of movement.
