In Pakistan, in lots of sub Saharan Africa, again you can see democracy and elections are compatible with corrupt governments, with states that are unstable and dangerous.

The government of the country is now stable.

The government of that country is now stable.

In a democracy, the people elect their government officials directly.

But they didn't govern.

George W. Bush stood up in his State of the Union address in 2003 and said that democracy was the force that would beat most of the ills of the world.

And that regime that we got rid of was actually a dictatorship, an authoritarian regime, that for decades created a great sense of paralysis within the nation, within the people themselves.

The government oppressed the people.

The government imposed a new tax on farmers.

The people set up a new government.

So here's the model of government.

That's engaging in the wrong debate.

We can't afford to destabilise this government right now.

politically, there's nothing going on now anyway.

Tyrannical governments frequently gaol their political opponents.

Tyrannical governments frequently imprison their political opponents.

Tyrannical governments frequently put their political opponents in prison.

(Applause)

Politics is not changing government is changing.

And what happens as a result of this is, when those parties are elected, and inevitably they fail, or inevitably they make political mistakes, democracy takes the blame for their political mistakes.

In a conflict where our national security or financial interests aren't at stake

For decades, we have lived under authoritarian regimes in the Arab world, in the Middle East.

You really believe that if there are democratic elections in Egypt now, that a government could emerge that espouses some of the values you've spoken about so inspiringly?

The state government deprived the civil rights of their citizen.

A stable economy is the aim of every government.

They claim that they are battling a dastardly conspiracy.

Farmers rebelled against the government.

So the good news is that earlier this year, the state council passed a new regulation on house requisition and demolition and passed the right to order forced demolition from local governments to the court.

But private communities, private, corporate, privatizing communities, are not bottom up democracies.

The Japanese government made an important decision.

live under governments they voted in and can vote out.

The well being of the nation is the government's responsibility.

So for me the work on self driving cars started in 2004 after the first DARPA Grand Challenge.

So we have a situation in the world today where in more and more countries the relationship between citizens and governments is mediated through the Internet, which is comprised primarily of privately owned and operated services.

Democracy Comes Second

It shows us a general mistrust of government or government backed institutions, which lacked transparency in the past.

France was able to muster up through the revolutionary government saying look, this is a government for the people by the people.

He defies the present government which is no less oppressive than its predecessor.

The government undertook a drastic reform of parliament.

The second, I believe, is political correctness.

So this is what I mean with a failing governance structure, because even the powerful government, which we have in Germany, comparatively, was not able to say,

We cannot forget that we are here today because the federal government has failed the American people regarding immigration policy

And in a supposedly representative government regime, not a democracy, for 200 years, it's always the rich who have governed.

The second thing you need to do is pay your political hangers on.

In fact, the federal government says it's a guy called the Principle Federal Officer, who happens to be with TSA.
