Democracy is two wolves and a sheep deciding what’s for lunch.
A Republic is two wolves and one well armed sheep contesting the vote.

I’ve never really liked that analogy in re: Republic. IMO, a Republic is no better than a Democracy. Now, hear\read me out ;)
In a Republic, the sheep is merely voted by the People to decide what is for dinner (same outcome); instead of mob rule (majority of masses) via Democracy.
In OUR Constitutional Republic, one can bring up\in our inalienable Rights.
It is the *Constitution*, via Federalism, that limits even what those elected in a Republic may (not) do.
You’re right of course. I should have said a Constitutional Republic.
