"Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government's purposes are beneficial. Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by evil-minded rulers. The greater dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding." - Louis Brandeis
But if he truly wants a democracy, there are plenty to choose from in Europe. They're far ahead of our rickety old farmwagon of a republic, in a lot of ways.
Only in our bizarro world could a an entire party of State Senators flee the state to avoid voting on cost cutting reforms - reforms that lead to millions of dollars saved, jobs saved, then 54% of the union members drop...and the unions still force a recall, in which records are set for voter turnout, giving the same results as the original election - and "the USA is dead..."
If only those teacher's unions would have taught history to the poor shmuck.

So the Unions didn't pour everything they had into this one? Somehow I disbelieve the unhappy blue collar worker's numbers.
I'm glad that we live in a Republic and that it's still a Republic.
The Democracy that is modern Greece might accept this guy.
