Summarize Argument
Lorraine disagrees with Claude’s claim that France should hold referenda on major foreign-policy issues. Instead, Lorraine concludes that having referenda on foreign-policy decisions would lead to disaster. As support, she references the fact that the general public is unwilling or unable to become informed about foreign-policy.
Notable Assumptions
Lorraine’s argument assumes that the public’s lack of knowledge would persist if such a referendum system was implemented.
