Go back to Africa then.
They did not believe in democracy. They believed in a constitutional republic.
I believe that you had to own land to be a voter back then. I’d like to see a return to that, frankly, I felt that way even when I owned no land.
The enemy within!

Stopped reading there.
The goal is to delegitimize our founders and the nation as founded by them.
They want communism.
They believed in a constitutional republic.
We are an exceptional nation if we weren’t you’d wouldn’t be publicly bloviating now !
Its amazingly ironic how completely, absolutely uniform in race, gender and ideology these PC phony positions of “diversity officer” are.
The 1619 Project author is not an exceptional author...
Saying something is exceptional is not even bragging since doesn’t mean the something is better than something else.
The author needs to support his assertion with a comparison of America with other nations and cultures.
She’s right on the first item, we are NOT a dounded democracy thank God. She can have her opinion of America who cares
It’s not a democracy, it’s a REPUBLIC!
They hated democracy. This story shows how far we have fallen.
It’s really a shame what low IQs try and fail to do.
It’s also really a shame that the media’s collective IQ is even lower.
Oh well, at least they can be a breeding ground for future democrat politicians.
Everyone knows they didn’t believe in democracy. It is why we have a Republic and a Constitution that protect individual rights. Our Founders did not want the tyranny of the majority.
Yes, and thank you ‘founder’ for your efforts to rewrite history via historical revisionism too......NOT.
The Democratic Party is simply living up to its name these days and must be destroyed to save the Republic.
When you have a poor self-image nothing looks exceptional.
I don’t believe in democracy either. Personally I think only property owners should have the right to vote.
The Left has convinced tens of millions of fools that it’s bad to think America is, or ever was, exceptional because America has done some bad things. But exceptional has never meant perfect and even saying this is/was the greatest country on Earth doesn’t mean one is dismissing the contributions of other countries or people. The reality is that we live in a world full of sin and pretty bad things and the seemingly never ending desire to control the masses and a country based on liberty and freedom is a pretty special thing.
What a preposterous title. Still lofty and admirable (/S) although subservient as VP to the higher up president for Equity.... etc.
Like relatives of bosses having useless non-work jobs with high sounding titles to get money from the company till. With lavish expense accounts and luxury cars.
Remember the urban mayors used to get paid to attend conferences on problems of urban areas, held in places like luxury resorts in the Caribbean?
And later one (not the urban problems conference):
Honolulu Mainland Mayors Face Backlash For Business Trip To Honolulu By Christina Jedra / June 27, 2019 As leaders from across the country land in Honolulu for the U.S. Conference of Mayors this week, some are getting flack from their constituents back home for visiting the island destination. New Jersey officials were slammed by NJ.com for going on what it described as a vacation. “Yes, for the mere price of absolutely free, thanks to you,” the editorial board wrote to New Jersey taxpayers, “they could get stunning views of the Pacific Ocean and Honolulu coastline, soak in the sun on a balcony overlooking the beach, sample five outdoor swimming pools, lei-making, hula and ukulele classes.”
Hunter Biden using all his nonexistent knowledge of natural gas and organization management or Chelsea Clinton using her executive savvy to get the most for underprivileged children from the millions in donations to the Clinton Foundation. Impressive.
