"That was my first thought as well, and then I thought of the likely responses of many CNN viewers! "What a bunch of ignorant Trump Supporters...they don't even know we live in a democracy!" Oh, wait..."

I thought of that as well. It is not enough to just snicker about their ignorance when many people really don't know and the educational and media institutions won't teach them. The dems utilize this ignorance to their advantage.

Consider that even if these people were fully educated now they may say -- "why did the founders put together this crap? Let's change it to a pure democracy. Hey these socialists and marxists talk about a people's government. Let's do that!"

Don't rule that out. Whether the people see Trump supporters as anti-democracy or they see us as correct about our form of government -- either way the dems may be able to make use of that to our disadvantage.

Nevertheless we should educate the voters and explain WHY it was designed the way it was.

All true. Pure democracy is an abomination, where 6 out 10 people decide the other four can be eaten, and it is all good and legal.

The Founders recognized it and rightly viewed it as the tyranny of the majority.
