Alex will certainly answer it better- but there is a REASON we are a representative republic and NOT a democracy. It protects people's interest.

Funny how the founders seemed to know what we needed.
Are you still spouting that tired old line? We had this discussion before; America is both a republic and a democracy. The terms are not mutually exclusive.

You seem to hate Democrats and all things democratic so fervently that you even try to denigrate even the word “democracy”. That kind of hate isn’t healthy, Nephy.
