I am astonished that Senator Bacik, my old and good friend, continues to refer to the convention and the Government's response to it in glowing terms. I managed to engineer a little bit of democracy into it. Some 94% of the people voted for some participation by the people in the nomination of the presidency but they are totally ignoring the will of the people. Some 52% wanted a change in the voting age.
