Most democracies let the people decide. You can't have it both ways.
Absolutely, no democracy can survive a people who are determined to let democracy fall.
Of course, that's rarely what people think they are getting.
You fear authoritarianism and the demise of democracy yet feel comforted in the fact that the ruling party is hindering someone's ability to run for election.
Not seeing the forest for the trees so to speak.
The Republicans are the ruling party now?
(You do know that's who filed the Colorado law suit.)
But sure, let's follow your philosophical position as you see it.
Any restriction on eligibility is an infringement of democracy.
If that's what you believe, then you think non citizens of any age can hold office as well, correct?
Also, do you believe in elections?
Since elections have rules and eligibility requirements and you are against those, you can't really support them, can you?
I will ask you the same thing I've been asking Not Getting Younger - is this just "You aren't allowed to restrict Trump" thing or do you have a specific, thought out view on eligibility and rules for elections?
If the latter, what is that view?
