A Democracy is 4 wolves and a lamb voting on what's for dinner (Ambrose Bierce). A Republic is when there's a shepherd to protect the minority's right to life (me). The founding fathers were horrified at Democracies. They called them "mobocracies."
"Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide."
John Adams
