America is a Republic. Not a Democracy. <<< BINGO!!!
There was a time when anyone with a 6th grade education or higher understood the completely opposite concepts and why the Founding Fathers INTENTIONALLY designed a “REPUBLIC”!

We’re far from a strict democracy and thankfully so. We are a constitutional republic (or were). The founders in their wisdom put some of our most cherished rights beyond the reach of a simple majority - the bill of rights.

BINGO
Rather than being a Democracy (or Mobocracy) as those who understand the premise, we should be self-governing best served as a representative Republic. Our elected officials represent the local interests rather than the mob or party interests.
