Really? Because the top comment to which you replied stated:
>This is a problem as old as thought itself. One of the worlds first philosophers, Plato, wrote a book about it. He agreed, the best form of government is one where the terms are longer.
Ancient philosophers did not necessarily think democracy was good. Some were even so direct as to say that noble blood deserved to rule. Plato believed longer terms were less influenced by democracy than shorter terms, and therefore they were a better form of government.
I think someone is going to have to come up with some actual scholarly citations, because you and the top commenter to which I am referring are explicitly disagreeing and up until this point all anyone has done is make baseless assertions
