Ahistorical nonsense. They don't believe in a nobility by birth, but they absolutely believe that some people "are just better than others" and who should rule. Its so foundational to the ideology that its written into the US Constitution. Anyone who believes that capitalism is a meritocracy (ie Liberals) believes there should be a liberal elite.
