So the Constitution gives birth to both yet you place the two above that which created them?

And, to label the US a "Constitutional Republic", as you had insisted & stated, is/was incorrect and incomplete.

At minimum, your label does not differentiate between the US and other forms of "Constitutional Republics".

The US is a Federal Republic, according to its constitution, and, a democracy.

By its very name your "Federal Republic" is what is incorrect and incomplete. A Federal Republic can be created without a Constitution. A Constitutional Republic has to have a Constitution,, which America does.

The US is a Federal Republic, according to its constitution, and, a democracy.
The US is a Constitutional Republic because of the Constitution. Your very words prove it.

And, once again, show me anything that shows the nation was created as a democracy. You've yet to do so.
A majority vote in the House or Senate does not a democracy make.
