What did Les teach about the strengths and weaknesses of democracy?

Les teaches that democracy is beloved and is the greatest form of government ever brought on the scene, but when it comes to getting something done, it is probably the worst ever conceived. He connects this to Daniel chapter 2, where the great empires pictured in the image—head of gold, breast of silver, belly of brass, legs of iron, and feet of iron and clay—become politically weakened by the number of people involved in decision-making. By contrast, when Christ sets up His kingdom again, it will be glorious because it is a kingdom of one, with absolute power, no confabs, and no consensus. Nebuchadnezzar, like other great dictators, was a despot and a totalitarian whose decision-making was within himself, though no human has God's love and graciousness. All these empires were inferior to the one before politically.
