Recently tons of articles appearing in China claiming American democracy is really bad. Many of those articles are quite long, Here is one excerpt from a newspaper in China:
“In the second presidential debate, instead of discussing future policies, both candidates violently attack each other’s personal virtues, but neither are people of great virtues…The benefits of political competition in western system has gone…clever rhetoric has replaced honesty and ability… American democracy has lost the moral high ground, this time, America, the greatest “democracy preacher” on earth should have a rest…”
In your opinion, did American democracy lost its appeal and is it no longer a good system? Why?
Still good? I’m not sure it ever was good in the first place.
Also, why are we taking an article written by the government of China seriously?

Do you mean the combination of US Dollar and US Military? The “buy or-die” system?

The system of US Dollar and US Military has not much to do with democracy.
Very true Arminus, neither have much to do with American Democracy. You’ve proved your position incorrect, didn’t think you had that sort of honesty and historical insight in you.
