It seems as though every time I hear a pundit on television, a politician, many judges, and yes, even the President, they are calling the United States a Democracy. America is decidedly not a democracy. In a democracy, everyone has one vote. All laws, regulations, policies, etc., of the government are decided by a plebiscite, that is, the majority of all the voters in a country decide every case. It is a true "one person, one vote." Does it not make you wonder that leftists always refer to their socialist utopias as "democracies"? Democracies are not very good forms of government; they have never worked well in the past.

In our form of government, which is a Representative Republic, we elect representatives to decide such issues for us. The closest we come to a democracy is in the election of our representatives. In an election the majority of the voters decide the who our elected representatives are. But it ends there. After the election, our representatives vote for our laws, policies, regulations, etc. A plebiscite, that is, a majority of voters do not. Our Constiuttional Representative Republic has worked well since its inception. Though not perfect, it has proved to be the best form of government ever designed.

So, PLEASE STOP REFERRING TO OUR FORM OF GOVERNMENT AS A DEMOCRACY!
