Fulfilled by the 2012 Presidential Election...
A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the majority discovers it can vote itself largess out of the public treasury. After that, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefits with the result the democracy collapses because of the loose fiscal policy ensuing, always to be followed by a dictatorship, then a monarchy. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. ~ Alexander Fraser Tytler
