In the face of the world's unprecedented changes in the past century, to eliminate the “Western-style democracy fetish” and “Western-style system worship” represented by the United States of America, we must unswervingly hold high the scientific banner of full-process people’s democracy and adhere to and improve the system of people's congresses; we must give full play to the role of the people's congress system as an important institutional vehicle for realising people's democracy on full process in China; we must strengthen the leading role of legislation and the effective role of supervision, so that the advantages of the system can be better transformed into the effectiveness of national governance; also, we must follow the basic laws of modern political development, comply with “eight criteria in assessing a country’s democracy” and “four principles of evaluating national democracy”, and comprehensively clarify the true democracy and effectiveness of the national political system through a comparative analysis of the characteristics and practical effects of the democratic systems in China and the United States. In this way, we can better unite the hearts and minds of the people, gather public opinion, and jointly write a new chapter of socialist political civilization with Chinese characteristics, and jointly make new and great contributions to the progressive development of human political civilization.
