Why do the individual voters have more power in a democracy than they do in an autocracy one ruler knows what is best for the country all the power stays with the local governments closest to the people the people chose the leaders that will make laws and govern the country voters make wise decisions based only on facts not opinions

The people chose the leaders that will make laws and govern the country 

It is written in the constitution saying all beliefs are allowed in the u.s. justice will be surved to everyone no matter what the color of that person is. and that all people are equal not matter there color is the u.s. that was a lie though because black people were still treated poorly, and there were places that was white people only such as hospitals, schools, bathroom, and more.
