Well, do we live in a democracy or is it just one day every 4 years?

Actually we do not live in a democracy. We live in a federal constitutional republic. A democracy is what the lunatics at DU want. They would only have to win a few states to be in power for ever.

We should not speak in their language.

Americans have never had a democracy form of government. We are a Constitutional Republic. Coming out of the constitutional convention, Benjamin Franklin was questioned what kind of government we had. His reply was along the line “a republic if you can keep it”.

Democracy is mob rule, the loudest voice. Think Antifa. Think Obama/Biden, etc.

Reference: Jr. High Civics and American History. 1960s.
