>What do you mean by "real democracy"?
Only direct democracy is real democracy. So-called "representitive"
democracy is a fraud and a sham. It isn't democracy. It isn't even
representative, especially as long as artificial people have more
representation than real people.
We're entering the twentieth century with an eighteenth century system.

Probably not very much (see above) but it would be better than this thing
we have now.

Your probably right. I could go along with electing delegates, as long as
they were recallable at any time and only spoke for us and not for
themselves. But really, I prefer to participitate directly in the making
of any decision that impacts my life.

It did them even less good than it did us.
Personally, I never vote for candidates. It doesn't matter who holds
office. None of them represent me. I represent me. Anybody who says they
do is lying.
I do, however, vote on referendums. They're the closest thing to real
democracy we have. They don't do a hell of a lot of good, either. My state
voted to legalize medical hemp, but the feds still bust care providers and
buyer's clubs.
