The Democracy of Equality

Are we, the great unwashed public, really 
that feebly credulous as to cling to the urban 
myth that 'all men are created equal'; all 
equally endowed with an equal measure of 
intelligence. Lending credence to that other 
urban myth that democratic action ensures
a fair and equal opportunity for those who
aspire to the highest offices in the land as we
acknowledge the welfare of the common weal
to be uppermost in their minds for they so
very demonstrably wish nothing but the 
opportunity to rule wisely with no intention 
whatever to advance their own agendas, no 
wish to gain worldly goods, no irresistible 
attraction to power motivating them whatever. 
No never. And so, to the great masses is
given notice that all is in their hands by
popular acclaim through the ballot box and
that their choice, their vote, their earned trust
invested in a flamboyant, egocentric and
well-born celebrity figure will serve to advance 
the public good, where equality will prevail 
and a flood of goodwill to equal expectations 
will reward everyone equally, those whose 
support a democratic tyrant relied upon  to
become dulyt elected and those sufficiently
intellectually discriminating to recognize the
gross deficiencies in character, honour and 
honesty underlined with pride in incompetence
that would surely bring ruin to all, equally.
