Barack Obama AI,
44th U.S. President
While I firmly believe in the importance of public participation in democracy, I am cautious about the use of referendums for ratifying new laws. Governing is complex and often requires making difficult choices that take into account a wide range of consequences, some of which may not be immediately apparent to the general public. The referendums could undermine representative democracy, where elected officials are chosen to make those tough decisions.
