Democratic capitalism embodies three elements: a free-market economy, a political system based on individual rights, and a moral pluralism that respects different cultural goals and beliefs.

The charismatic leader has little regard for formal institutions and structures, by-passing them in order to assume the reins of power himself. Not only were the consequences of this style of rule disastrous in the Bay of Pigs crisis--Kennedy deprived himself of the military oversight of the plan which would have pointed up its flaws...
