Face reality, the elections will be a sham. Without participation from the Sunnis, there is almost no chance of any government created to stand on its own. More like the French revolution than the American Rev.

The Sunnis are only 20% of the population of Iraq. I know of a democratic government standing on its own for a long time without the participation of over 50% of the population.
Come to think of it, in the last US election 40% of voters didn't participate, but you could just call that a sham the way you call anything whatever you want without any regard to the truth.
