"If I were further told that the inevitably embittered Sunni Arab minority had decided to throw itself into democratic politics to amend the constitution and protect its interests in a future Iraq, I would be amazed by how swiftly democratic habits can take root in a post-totalitarian country."
Which is of course a good reason to think that the civil war fears were overblown.
After all, voting in the 1860 Presidential election was what proved that the South was not going to secede from the U.S.
That is all.
