Search Liberty Tree:  
The will of the people shall be the law of the land. Constitutions, statutes, and ... government are but instruments to carry out the will of the people, and when they fail ... they must be changed to carry out and express the ... will of the people. For over all and above all, and greater than all, and expressing the supreme sovereignty of all, are the people.
~ Fighting Bob La Follette

Let's have as much representative democracy as necessary, and as much participatory democracy as possible.
