I'm sorry for causing confusion by addressing your posts point by point, rather the opposite of "scattershot" btw.  But then majority is the opposite of minority as well.  I actually get what you're trying to say, you're just not doing a very good job of saying it.  Oddly, pally articulated your argument much better than you have.  But I'll leave it at that since you don't want more "scattershot" point by point replies.

A minority of a voting population in a liberal democracy can impose it's will on a majority in several ways, one of which is to capture the legislative branch, and then, as a legislative majority, capture the judiciary via control of nomination.

I was going to mention Pally's reference to gerrymandering. Thanks for the reminder. That is one way a minority can can become a "majority" in a legislature and use that to impose their will on a majority of citizens who will otherwise. Her examples of minority imposition are excellent. 

Not clear that you do "actually get what I'm trying to say" if you're still claiming "all three steps require a majority to achieve."
But you are not willing or able to summarize my argument to show that you do, so best we leave off the topic.
