Well, there you have it. You'll forgive me, I'm ten years removed from having such considerations be academic.
To expound on my answer from before: in modern democracies, we aren't really, REALLY, democratic. We are representational democracies, which means we trust the general populace to elect the smart ones from their ranks, who will then go and represent the interests of their constituents in all their government-running matters.
