Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1, Identify the central idea of democracy as that people want and are capable of ruling themselves.
2, Discuss how democracy's widespread popularity can be explained by its protection of human rights and recognition of intrinsic worth of human beings and equality. Democracy is also most likely to produce rational policies because of the pooled knowledge of society.
