Please consider the following quote and place your thoughts about it within your reply:
"It is only when the people become ignorant and corrupt, when they degenerate into a populace, that they are incapable of exercising their sovereignty. Usurpation is then an easy attainment, and an usurper soon found. The people themselves become the willing instruments of their own debasement and ruin."
-- James Monroe (1758-1831), 5th US President Source: First Inaugural Address, 1817
