If you were Chinese, why on earth would you want your Great Helmsman to step down?

“BEIJING — There was a time, not so long ago, when a Chinese leader setting himself up as ruler for life would have stirred international condemnation for bucking the global trend toward greater democracy.

Conservatives have become the equivalent of a Pacific island cargo cult that worships the Constitution as a magical document. Foreigners look at the West and see drag queens reading books to children under liberal democracy.

Is it any wonder that the Chinese model is seen as the future?
