Countdown to the end of the Republic (USA)

The US isn't a democracy.

The fact remains that the US is a Constitutional Republic and not a Democracy.

I notice the libs are disputing you on this. They need to go back to school, maybe a good one that taught civics right? They need to prove they could pass a good high school civics test before they try to participate in an intelligent discussion about government.

Here is the quote from Wikipedia. Parados is, again, quite mistaken.

, a representative democracy may or may not be a constitutional republic. For example, "the United States relies on representative democracy, but [its] system of government is much more complex than that. [It is] not a simple representative democracy, but a constitutional republic in which majority rule is tempered by minority rights protected by law."[5].

You got that Paradox?---It is not a simple representative democracy but a constitutional republic in which majority rule is tempered by minority rights protected by law.

A constitutional republic is a state where the head of state and other officials are elected as representatives of the people, and must govern according to existing constitutional law that limits the government's power over citizens.

In a constitutional republic, executive, legislative, and judicial powers are separated into distinct branches and the will of the majority of the population is tempered by protections for individual rights so that no individual or group has absolute power.

The fact that a constitution exists that limits the government's power makes the state constitutional. The head(s) of state and other officials are chosen by election, rather than inheriting their positions, and that their decisions are subject to judicial review.

Do you realize that the truth about our country has not been taught in government schools for years... there are
thousands of good little indoctrinated citizens that don't have a clue how this country came to be and what the constitution says.
