'Revolutions' at the 'Top' are Ideological.

Revolutions at the Top are Ideological. In a Democracy, they involve the very essence of Democracy. The problematic is that the Bottom is already divided into Two Parties and never shall the twain meet. In such cases, the end result will probably be a 'weakening' of Democracy. If Democratic government is a Government "of the People", "by the People", and "for the People", the tensions in the Ideological dispute will create a rift among the Individuals at the 'Top' as well as at the 'Bottom'. The 'Top' should know and should resolve such disputes in favor of the 'People' at the Bottom and not in accordance with 'either Ideology'. But, how is that to happen in a Supreme Court that is also 'Ideological' in Nature. Where is the 'Objectivity' and what happens to the 'People'. The best way is simply not to be too 'Party Loyal' with Majority/Minority 'leverages' in the formations of the Committees, and most important, in the formation of the Supreme Court. If the Committee or Court Majority belong to one Party and the Minority belongs to another, the arguments will 'hold' along 'Ideological lines'. But, in a Democracy its always about the 'People' and not about the 'Party' and the different 'Ideologies'. A Judge in the highest Court of the Land should be a 'Peoples Judge' and not an 'Ideological Judge'. Parties may be 'acceptable', but 'Democracy' is 'essential'. Democracy is about the 'People', not about 'Ideologies' or 'Party Loyalty'. So, how is this to be implemented? Well, it may also be a little too 'simplistic' to say 'forget the Ideology' and 'remember the People', but that is the 'essence of Democracy'. Although its never about 'complete forgetting' the Ideology, but its always about 'being Human' and no 'Human Being' should 'forget' His or Her 'Humanity'. When a 'Representative' or 'Office Holder' forgets his or her Humanity, Democracy is 'never served'. When the Top of a Political Entity is compelled to 'act' from 'Party Loyalty', humanity is 'attenuated'. When the Highest Court in the Land 'decides' from Party Loyalty, 'Humanity' goes out the window. Although Party affiliations are 'normal', there is 'no need' to give up our 'Humanity'. There comes a time when our 'Party affiliations' should be 'Weaker' than our 'Humanity'. We are always 'Human' First, 'Ideologues' Second. Where are the 'Real Politicians'?
