Again, you claimed I was derailing the thread.  That has nothing to do with yours or my political beliefs.

Actually, it has everything to do with your left wing beliefs.....

Last time dumb ass!
This thread was a trolling thread, if you keep this shit up, I'll simply boot your as for trolling!
There is only one troll that should be posting in it, the idiot that started it.

Do I make myself clear? Not responding would be the smartest move.

He is not smart and keeps derailing the thread.  So I will give him a timeout, before you boot his bull shit ass. 

Solar et al,  we've had this discussion before, America is a constitutional or representative democracy.  We the people elect our representatives to represent us.

According to some definitions a republic is quite similar: 'a state in which supreme power is held by the people and their elected representatives, and which has an elected or nominated president rather than a monarch.'

But the people control the government by voting and voting is what democracy is all about.  'We the people....'

''America Is a Republic, Not a Democracy' Is a Dangerous—And Wrong—Argument'

"Enabling sustained minority rule at the national level is not a feature of our constitutional design, but a perversion of it.'

Yes we have, and I handed you your ass the last time you pulled this bull shit!

All you had to do was to show me in any of our Founding Documents, the word democracy, and you can't, so that's the end of this shit!
I'll tell you Right now, post that crap again, and I'll delete your posts, you are not allowed to spread lies!

How about you quote us what the constitution says about this being a democracy and where it says it. Till then maybe you should just sit down and STFU.

Yep....
The Marxists sleight of hand. Biteme hasn't had a cogent thought in a long ass time, he is but an empty shell.
While everyone is distracted and blaming this no body, the Marxists are wasting no time cementing their agenda globally.

He is being used as a distraction, just like BLM Antifa, the flu hoax etc. they don't want us watching what they're really doing worldwide in helping our enemies.

I felt like commenting, then I noticed the source of his wisdom. 
You gotta be kidding - it doesn't even deserve the click. 

More anti-American, Marxist wisdom - gee... that's like 90% of todays main stream publications.

Give me a bit and I'll be back to this thread.

Bullshit.

"And to the Republic, for which we stand...."

Idiot.  No wonder the blue cities are shitholes, it's their education system that turns out complete morons.

Why do you guys get so mad when another American has a different point of view? When you say we are a republic and not a democracy you have to realize many dictatorial nations call themselves a republic. But in America 'we the people' vote, people voting makes for a democracy, call it a republic if you like, but that doesn't change the fact that power rests with the people. As the old saying goes, the proof is in the pudding and the pudding spoke in 2020.

A republic is: "National sovereignty lies in the authority of the government, not in an emperor or monarch. The word republic comes from the Latin words res publica, meaning a "public thing". For example, the United States and India are republics, but North Korea and Cuba are also called republics."

https://www.britannica.com/topic/republic-government

"Democracy is government by the people especially : rule of the majority. A government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections."

'Does the Constitution mention democracy?' 

"The Constitution is organized into three parts. The Constitution established a Federal democratic republic. It is the system of the Federal Government; it is democratic because the people govern themselves; and it is a republic because the Government's power is derived from its people." 


Banish word salad call a spade a spade.
