How so? Because I know what a Republic is? And I don't need the Constitution to spell it out for me, because I understand what a Republic is.
Democracy is a concept going back thousands of years and has influenced our civilization more than anything else. It's something that philosophers and political academics have been studying for thousands of years.
But you want to dismiss it as just "mob rule" and that the Constitution doesn't spell it out that a Republic is a type of democracy?
Obviously the writers of the Constitution gave us too much credit and assumed that we would be an educated population.
And why is it that it's only been the last three years that this has been an issue? Like I said before, there are plenty of speeches by Republican presidents calling us a democracy. And telling us how important democracy is. Did some sort of mass awakening happen where we suddenly stopped believing we're a democracy? If so, what exactly occurred to cause that?
You can keep repeating yourself and calling me ignorant all you want. It doesn't strengthen your argument.
Why don't you tell me what you believe democracy is, and what a Republic is and then tell me where you learned about them? Maybe you'll be able to change my mind that way.
I'm not trying to change your mind. I'm trying to show you the facts which you can't accept.
Fake News has you brainwashed. " It's very dANgeROuS to our dEmOCrAcY".
I have read it. I know it says we're a Republic. I also know what a Republic is. It's a type of democracy.
None of this changes, no matter how many times you repeat yourself.
Could you please tell me what you believe democracy is, and what you believe a Republic is?
I would really like to know. Because I think you don't understand either of them. All I've heard you say about democracy is that it is a mob rule. And you haven't said what you think a Republic is.
You can repeat yourself ad nauseam. It doesn't make you right.
Why do you want to continue going around in circles on this? What do you expect to happen?
You are ignorant about our government. That is very clear.
Why is it that President Reagan, one of the best Republican presidents ever, not understand that the US was not a democracy?

What does Reagan parroting the false "muh democracy " have to do with the facts of the Constitution?
Nothing. Anyone can say it, it doesn't make it true. There is one clause in the Constitution where is states what kind of government we have.
Point out where in the Constitution it says "democracy".

How do you think you're going to show me facts by just repeating that the Constitution doesn't use the word democracy?
You can't even tell me what you think a democracy is, other than "mob rule". You haven't been able to tell me what a Republic is.
I think you're getting your education from memes. Honestly, I do.
Ok, you don't want to hear Reagan and "muh Democracy".
How about telling President Trump that he's wrong about "muh democracy"?

The Constitution is the law of the land. You should read it sometime.
I have read it. I know it says we're a Republic. I also know what a Republic is. It's a type of democracy.
None of this changes, no matter how many times you repeat yourself.
