i share your reservations, but you've still not successfully overturned churchill's 'worst system except all the others' point, in a way thats convinced me.
If the western powers were really so keen on the rpinciple of democracy they would strengthen it and allow people to vote on every issue. The technology exists to do that, but that would actually mean giving power to the people and the politicians want it for themselves.

The truth is that democracy as practiced today is a sham, given the air of legitimacy by worldwide respect for a principle that is being corrupted and spat upon by 'democratic' governments. You may as well go for an elective dictatorship, just about as democratic and far more effective.
