I am so week with these logic games, although these concepts are not much tested in GMAT, But I did face one CR based on Logic games. Please provide information for cracking questions of these types.

Thanks

IMO C.

iF moral and intelligent ---->CAUSES democracy to function well.

any answer choice that has it reversed is wrong.
You got a dream... You gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period.

Hi DD,

IMO over here I don't think that correct answer should be D....

Please see the venn diagram that I draw above....there if u see then democracy functioning well is a subset of Electorate moral and intelligent.... there might be instances where electorate is M&I still democracy does not function well....

Argument says that:

democracy function well only if electorate is moral and intelligent.....

it does not say whenever electorate is moral and intelligent in all those circumstances democracy function well.....it says only a part of the same.....

Please tell if I am missing something here.

I think you are right.. I missed the "only" and didnt consider it while answering.

because of "only" the whole thing changes..

I agree with you, I would go with C.. I am going to delete my earlier posts.. thanks buddy.

Answer D seems to be logical one out of other answer choices
