Roslin was a big part of accomplishing that as well. As Tigh seems to have found out the hard way. Galactica may be the big military fish in a small pond these days, but it depends on the other members of the fleet to continue functioning.Even heroes go wrong. I think Adama is an example of a military commander who is used to being obeyed, and not used to dealing with the multiple viewpoints that running a democratic government entails. I think he really doesn't believe himself to be a fascist, but I think his actions could make him one without him even realizing it. He's seems to be the sort of guy who says he believes in the ideals of the Articles of Confederation, but is willing to set them aside when they become inconvenient for him (unlike Apollo, who seems to be a true idealist), and ends up being a fascist without even realizing that is what he has become. That is the big question looming out there right now. Did the air-lock cylon tell the truth? If he did, is the "Adama" who is a cylon the elder one, or his son? If Boomer is a cylon, why did she shoot Adama?</blockquote>
