The Birth of the Israelite Kingdom and the End of Their Democracy

“We want a king who can fight for us” said the heads of the twelve tribes.
“Who needs a king, God is your king” responded Samuel the prophet.
The elders listened to him and were unhappy with the answer.
 Then Samuel, who could not understand their motive continued:
“I am your simple servant. I took note of your decisions. In the end, you are the ones who decide for your destiny.” The elders insisted and so the people of Israel replaced their democracy with King Saul, and later with King David.

People always need someone who decides their destiny.  This is why we have the elections and the super delegates.

Well said! People want others to make decisions for them so when they don't work out they have someone to blame.

God bless,
