Democracy in the Bible and History
The Biblical Importance of Rule by Law
By Kevin J. PriceSo, what form of government did the founding fathers intend for the United States? Well, recall the statement of Franklin, "a republic, if you can keep it." Recall, also, your pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands...
"Republic" is virtually a lost term in the American lexicon, but it was an important idea throughout American history.

There is no public record of this term used by a President before this date.
