You're absolutely right about the Dims, but you need to remember how strongly the GOP supports what it calls "democracy" & continues, w/o question, to call America a democracy.

According to the Constitution & several of the Founding Fathers' writings, nothing could be further from the truth. The Constitution establishes a REPUBLICAN form of federal government, & says that the states themselves must also have the same. In the Federalist Papers #10, James Madison tears the idea of democracy to shreds....please read it for yourself if you don't believe me.

I'm aware of this move toward "big government, only slower."

Yes, I know.

I have.

This is one of the things that bothers me a lot about the GOP. And makes me question what their real goals are. Its painfully obvious democracy around the world leads to socialism.
