Thank you. I'll read the FAQ, it seems exhaustive and informative.

And as I hope I made clear, I can certainly understand the notion that "democracy isn't awesome". But I don't get the jump from there to "a monarchy will be better."

Read "Democracy: The God That Failed" and "Liberty or Equality" for some basic arguments.
