"We can keep our Republic or we will inevitably end up an oligarchy of tyranny of the elite." -- Benjamin Franklin

From Heritage New Media Partners. It's about 10 minutes long, but worth the time.

This video does a great job explaining the difference between a Democracy and a Republic. Extremely relevant right now. Barack Obama is leading us down a path into Socialism which will eventually lead to a tyrannical form of government. When government gets too big, this is inevitablywhat happens.

And it is happening, right in front of us!

America is both a Republic AND a Democracy, no how much the “abolish the 17th amendment” crowd doesn't like it. (If you want to live in a Republic with NO Democracy, please move to Cuba) And ironically, I think the “we're a Republic” gang would actually be a lot happier if they were living in a british-style constitution monarchy.

Welcome to the Oligarchy.

Ease up on the shoe, Spicoli. It's your own skull, after all, that you're banging, not someone else's.

Not yet. We'll have an oligarchy at the federal level when the “abolish the 17th amendment will fix everything” gang gives my crooked state legislature the power to choose whoever they want as Senator with the voters having zero say in the matter. Instead of one Roland Burris, we'll get 99 more in the Senate. We'll have our very own House of Lords.
