What you're talking about is communism, believe me. You and Ben have equal rights in Debian Project, but Ben has much more power. And democracy is: -- you have more money -- you have more power (not rights). Debian equivalent -- you make more job for debian and have more knowledge and expirience -- you have more power. I can bet that you can't even imagine how much of himself Ben dedicates to Debian. Compared to him, you are just a lurker.
