Does anyone here have the poem "Democracy" by E.B. White? It starts out "Surely the Board knows what democracy is..." I need it for school! Or can someone tell me where to find it? I tried Google, but no luck
Here is what I found. This New Yorker article seems to be the original source no matter where I try. It is highlighted on the wikipedia page so if you care to try later, maybe the page will be back up. Go here....[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
"new yorker" is hilighted in this quote. Hopefully it is only down temporarily. :)
"Democracy is the recurrent suspicion that more than half of the people are right more than half of the time."
