You don't live in a Democracy. You live in a Constitutional Republic.No...just wanted others to see that the country actually cared about democracy.
A constitutional republic means that it is one in which, rather than directly governing, the people select some of their members to temporarily serve in political office; the constitutional part means that both the citizens and their governing officials are bound to follow the rules established in that Constitution.
Democracy is a system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives.
The Constitution itself forbids a true Democracy because the Constitution limits government powers. That is why the left hates the Constitution. If you were as smart as you think you are you would have known that.
