Most Western leaders do "what they feel is right" for their country. This sometimes involves making decisions which most of would believe immoral or unethical.
For instance, they talk about democracy, yet support leaderships in Egypt and Kuwait etc. They turn a blind eye to human rights abuses in Zimbabwe or female suppression in Saudi Arabia.
We as the electorate usualy turn a deaf ear because it does not directly affect us.
Having said all that. I would still rather live in a democracy, then NOT!
