Democracy Won't Work Says Paul Harvey on Charisma and Literacy
Paul Harvey argues democracy fails because charismatic appeal and voter apathy distort leadership. He cites a four year study by the Office of Education estimating 20 percent of adults functionally illiterate, with higher rates among Blacks and Latinos, and warns that a republic requires capable elected leaders rather than a mob voting on everything. He questions education as a cure and urges electing exceptional men to govern.
