Maybe a great time to fold the demoCRACTIC Party

Oh..remember that America is Not a true Democracy but a democratic Constitutional REPUBLIC (hence the name RepublicANS).
Yep, a democracy has 51% ruling the 49% who usually have no recourse against the larger Mob..
But our Founders discussed this and hated a Democracy thus the Bill of Rights and Amendments for the minority and oppressed.
Isn’t this fun, knowing those ole White Boys whom many sadly owned Slaves and knew it was terribly wrong but when starting up our new Nation they also knew the Southern Slave-holding states would never agree to form the Union of States..
So our Founders took the side-road approach knowing that the future possibilities of getting rid of Slavery would be greater later than then..
And echoed this message loudly by declaring “ALL Men Are Created Equal”.
And Slavery and their freedom & equal rights sadly didn’t happen overnight and took a dismal and bloody 200+ years and it’s still an ongoing trial..BUT it did happen where no other country would have deemed it possible..
Of which the Democratic PARTY likes to brag that they were the main impetus of the change..
When in fact they have been a burden all too often since they have fought the change since they have been the party of the KKK, the Jim Crow laws and even in mid 60’s their leaders held the longest filibusters to delay the Civil Rights Law which Republicans had to get passed and put that monumental bill on LBJ’s desk to sign.
Also, Dems under Billy Clinton incarcerated more Black Men on drug and other charges whereby the women had to raise the kids who became Fatherless..
A condition we still see today when our Football coaches go into the Black homes where the male athlete has been raised by his Mom, or Grandma or Aunt.
Oh yes, the Dems built cheap high-rise apartments which became getto’s all too often and no better than jails that imprisoned human beings.
Yep, it is time to phase out the current left-wing, crazed, angry, criminal-acting & unhealthy thinking Democratic PARTY that over the past 100 years has slowly ushered in Socialism, Communism, Marxism, radical Progressivism (Hillary) and now splitting out un-American & unpatriotic rhetoric that defies rational comprehension.
They have cozied up to minorities for generations so to get their votes simply to get into power and into the bank for the spoils.
Rush Limbaugh and I approve of this opinion!
Go at it DEMs..tell me where I May be incorrect~
Good Day~

Of Representation..
But Not a true Democracy as Dems like to say.
Look up a Democracy as used by Greeks or Romans or others and you will see it is of 51% mob rule where minority has no rights.
And, Founders feared mob or majority rule so much they came up with the Electoral College Vote concept where a national candidate for the Presidency had to win the popular vote in EACH state and not in the Nation since just a few large states & cities would offset the small states, towns & rural areas.
An example: Trump won 2500+ counties to KH’s 250+ counties (I made this up but it’s close to show what the Founders feared).
Nice try Lester.

It is a Representative Democracy. That's fact.
The United States is a representative democracy. This means that our government is elected by citizens. Here, citizens vote for their government officials. These officials represent the citizens' ideas and concerns in government.

Go to Google. Pull up the US Constitution, and let me know when you find the word democracy. It's called reading comprehension for a reason. Get back to me when you're done

The word "republic" makes zero appearances, too

There is one instance of the word "republican":
Section. 4.
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.
In Federalist No. 39, James Madison said:
We may define a republic to be, or at least may bestow that name on, a government which derives all its powers directly or indirectly from the great body of the people, and is administered by persons holding their offices during pleasure, for a limited period, or during good behavior. It is ESSENTIAL to such a government that it be derived from the great body of the society, not from an inconsiderable proportion, or a favored class of it;
"Democracy" and "republican" are interchangeable. Let's not play word games.

We're talking about black and white print on one of the most important documents of our time. We're not using a play on words. Furthermore, your now claiming to know what the founders ment when it was written. Wow, that's incredible.

The sentence "1959Paw is a doofus" has the same meaning as "1959Paw is a dingdong."

Billy Clinton did play Word Games when asked if he xxxx Monica.
Whatever, America has a Bill of Rights and a Constitution and DEMs are always trying to bypass it or circumvent it.
Why is that, particularly the Bidens?

As a representative republic, it is indeed a form of democracy.

Yep. Case in point. This rant must have come from some of the "history correcting" rollout that has started to circulate in conjunction with the focus on the Smithsonian.
Seems like that group (Smithsonian) is getting ready to have a purge, and overall refreshing of the information that is on display. I just hope they leave the Enola Gay alone. I got to see that exhibit first hand last year and it was pretty somber but reflective moment on our nations history.
