I usually look at propaganda as being messaging crafted by the influence of the government Based upon that theory, there will always be a blending of politics in propaganda. If that theory is faulty, then there is no connection.

Regarding the effect of democracy on the issue: Democracy can make it either better or worse, because it implies that fresh blood is brought into the organization, which could (likely) change the organization itself, and possibly the message. The message could be either good or bad (to the public), but it can change when other influences are added into the mix..

"Bedfellows"? Absolutely as they often are tools. Propaganda in a democracy is not reserved to the ethical influencer generally good, bad or indifferent, but the persuasive political influencer. There is nothing that can be done about it, nor anything that should beyond self awareness and understanding propaganda to make critically evaluated and informed decisions. To believe or not believe.
