A republic is a form of democracy. It's a representational democracy. What you're talking about with mob rule is called a direct democracy.
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. -USCISdotgov
That's from the US government Citizenship and Immigration Services. It helps explain things like what a representative democracy is to immigrants. They have some very easy to understand booklets and quiz sheets, if you're interested in learning more about it.
Our Constitution CLEARLY states what kind of government we have, Article IV, Section 4 - READ IT.
The Citizenship and Immigration Services is NOT our government.
NO WHERE in the Constitution is democracy even mentioned.
What part of the Constitution do you not understand?
I want to add that if you give these people who are trying to destroy our country an inch, they will take a mile. Democracy by any other name is still MOB rule. Don't give them an inch!!!
You're just repeating yourself now. And my answer still hasn't changed. A Republic is a type of democracy. It's a representative democracy.
I don't need the Constitution to specify that we're a democracy because I know what a Republic is. It's a type of democracy.
I think you believe that democracy is only one thing, mob rule. Which would be called a Direct Democracy. I gave you the link to the USCIS because it has information packets that explain democracies.
If you don't trust a department of the US government to tell you what type of governing system we have, I completely understand.
Try looking up some books that explain the different governing systems around the world. They usually have good info explaining democracies.
Or you could go old school and pick up some books on ancient philosophy and go back to the roots of democracy in ancient Greece and follow how it developed from there. I personally would go this way, because I dig philosophy in general.
Like the other poster here said, it's like saying a Chevy isn't a truck because it's a Chevy.
So if your only argument is that the US Constitution doesn't have the word democracy in it, I think that this conversation has reached its end.
LOL, you are merely repeating what others who are just as ignorant of the Constitution say about it.
You are a fool to trust the talking heads in the government to tell you what is in the Constitution, the law of the land.
Our government has been infiltrated by leftists trying to destroy the founding document which CLEARY states we have a REPUBLICAN form of government. I suggest you read it because you have no clue what it says.
When did the government get infiltrated by leftists trying to fool people into thinking this is a democracy?
Because before around 2020, Republicans were all for our democracy. There are plenty of speeches from Reagan and both Bushes going,,"Yay for our democracy!!!"
All this "the US isn't a democracy" stuff has only been going on for about 3 years.
