I know we have a republic but this still reinforces the alleged Winston Churchill quotation:

The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with any voter.

“The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with any voter.“

And that is why the word “Democracy” is never mentioned in any of our founding documents or collateral works, except in the pejorative sense.

The Founders considered Democracy a dirty word.

LOL! And so true. Is that a paraphrase or a quote? I assume the former since no quote marks.
