    No. It will be the perfection of democracy.

    This isn't nor has it ever been a democracy. Our founding fathers didn't even like the idea of a democracy because it enables a majority to exploit the minority.

    This is a constitutional republic.

    To answer you question, though, I think that diversity is a good thing. It is the melting pot which made America stand out in the world.

    No, the end of democracy will be on the neo-Condorcet paradox. Condorcet Paradox is for the case of three choice; neo--cordorcet would sunk down to two choice. In that case, after election, voter would support the losers much more.

    Equality? YOu mean not having someone to oppress, to feel superior to? That would not just be the end of democracy, but the end of civilization as we know it.

    "Democracy" means something like "political equalitarianism".

    But don't let the masses find out- it's obviously too radical

    for them.
