Kant thought that a republican form of government could work even with a nation of devils. However, despite the requirement that such devils at least had to have "understanding," I don't think Kant seriously considered whether a republican form of government could work with a nation of morons.[1]
That sweeps wide but it's clear where a lot of our problems come from - the universal franchise.
