Can Turks be trusted with their own future?
Turks can not be trusted with their own future because they can not make important decisions about their future. There have been lots of changes in Turkey till today. People have become more educated and sophisticated than past and they also have to elect or decide who will be presidents or legislators. They are living in democratic Turkey. People are completely free and they have lots of rights to live independently because of the democracy. On the other hand, Turks can not make all important decisions about their country though Turkey has a democratic system. When the ruling make all decisions, the people who live in Turkey can have difficulty in adopting these kind of decisions about themselves because they can not ensure its truth even if legislators was elected by Turks. In conclusion, Turks can not be trusted with their own future because their future depends on the ruling elites which make all significant decisions instead of Turks.

Thanks for following the posting instructions precisely. Your use of language here is very good.
A few comments:
1. You seem to have somehow misinterpreted the question. You are supposed to say if the ruling elite is correct to view ordinary Turks as incapable of participating in full democracy. In other words, should the powerful military council step back from politics and should restrictions on freedom of expression be lifted? Are the people too immature and/or ignorant to shape public opinion?
2. Please rewrite your post to answer this question.
