Blind faith does not apply. If I did not want to live in a democracy, I would not. Heck, I would fight against it. The German people in and of themselves were a tired and starving people (much like the Iraq people are now). People in desperate times cling to desperate measures. That is one reason why the war with Iraq is not a good idea. We are not walking into a group of conscripted sunni muslims like we did 10 years ago. We are walking into a starved and desperate people.
