“The Constitution did not create a direct democracy; it established a constitutional republic.” This is one thing you don’t hear politicians talk about any longer. Especially our President. In fact, I have never heard him mention us being a Republic. Bein a Republic gives the people of the country the power to run their own lives. A true Democracy, and only a Democracy gives the power to the government.
