Since the sin nature of all mankind makes it inherently evil by default, thus, the majority will always naturally choose evil options given the choice. A responsible government would realize this, and thus, ignore and do the opposite of 'the will of the people' at any & every time it is contrary to the LORD God's Will.
So your exemplar would be the Pope or Ahmedinejad? (Yes, I know they have different gods, but I understand that's a mere technicality).

Anyway, you'll be EMFM's favourite contributor now, making his case for the Divine Right of Kings.
