DEMOCTRATIC ELECTIONS

We will have presidential elections  within three week time. Anyone who thinks that there will be a change , He will confront to a just a failure and a dissapointment. This is not only because the elections will be reliable and thrustworthy but the system deficiency of the actual democracy understanding.

The major defect of the actual democracies are  the candidature mechanism. Once the party leader selects the member of parliaments and the latter selects the party leader the vicious cycle appear. In Turkey and in various developping countries loosing elections does not have any meaning for a party leadeer.  The party leader is there all the time and for many decades until he or she dies.

Let us compare presidential elections with multinational big companies amangerial system.What does such companies to appoint a CEO ? They look  to the past performances of the candidates…Who elects ? The executive board? How an executive board is consisted ? Not by all the workers vote ? This not a matter of suffrage. As a simple young worker how can one select the best CEO for his company? He can not but only a very competent group of persons can do. So the solution is to form a very competent executive board.

It is very sad to say, but if a party leader is saying that some managerial or administrative applications have to be changed and if these things will cause disadventage to me I will not be voting him -even without judging properly his challenge against the public utility-.  Once a famous actress said that”does my vote has the same value as the vote of shepherd over the mountains”… This has created a big debate and mostly accepted as an arrogance and hubris of the said actress.
