If we were truly a democracy, every law and every regulation would need to be approved by popular vote. How would the liberals like THAT?

They would love it. Dems would only have to go to large blue cities; NYC, LA, etc to win the Presidency.
IIRC,Hillary won the popular vote and demanded we get rid of the electoral college.

You missed my point. Can you imagine how long it would take to create regulations if every one would need to be voted on by voters? If we were truly a democracy, that is what would be required. That is why we are a representative republic and not a democracy.
