About this Quote

This quote by Woodrow Wilson is a reminder that a monarchy is not a freedom, despite who is in power. It is a tip that a monarchy is a system of government in which a single person, normally a hereditary monarch, holds absolute power. Also if a peasant has the ability to rise to the throne, the system of federal government stays the very same. This quote is a pointer that freedom is a system of federal government in which individuals have the power to elect their leaders as well as make decisions regarding their lives. It is a system of government that is based on the concept of bulk regulation and the defense of private rights. This quote is a suggestion that democracy is not a monarchy, despite that is in power.
