Re: It's pluralism v one party
In Europe, Communism is just another party (BTW, the french Parti Communiste got so low results (3%) it won't have its campaign reimbursed; they'll have to get the money somewhere else).
The danger is not the Communists, it's a regime that would only allow ONE PARTY and no opposition. That's what happened in Germany during WWII, that's what happened in the SU, in China, in most African countries, also what happened in South America, Cuba.
Now to claim that it's the communists way of doing this..I don't know.
I suspect a lot of anti-communist bias in the US.
BTW, in Europe all countries have more than 2 parties in their governments.
How many are there in the US?
And, as a result, what can be considered a better democracy?
