"We are a representative republic..."

Ahem............ahem.............precisely. Now, go look up the meaning of the word "representative", and thank you for supporting my point in your intended rebuttal.

"Representative" does not mean you vote the way the majority of your constituents believe. A representative is chosen to represent the people, and to vote his or her own conscience.

Our Founders did NOT want a democracy.
