Democracy

In America, we are allowed to state something whenever and whatever we want. But, majority is what guides our decision in to making the right ones? There are few people who stand out in the crowd and speak for their own means. DeTocqueville states,”you are free to think differently from me, and to retain your life, your property, and all that you posess; but you are henceforth a stranger among your people.” He is saying that people in the United States have their freedom and will do to certain things. Our decisions are always majority rule, never just one person. If there is one who does not agree with the majority, he or she is looked down upon. There are always times when i get the feeling that people would like to speak out against a leader or speaker. But they choose not to because they dont want to be looked down upon and be considered a “stranger.”
