From heresy to conventional wisdom? Excellent New York Times series of articles on crisis of democracy leads with my quote: “Democracy must be something more than two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.” Headline for the lead NYT essay by Serge Schmemann: “Are the Wolves Devouring Democracy?”
Hard-nosed realism on democracy is good news for the survival of liberty.
The wolves/sheep line is from Lost Rights: The Destruction of American Liberty (St. Martin’s Press, 1994).
