The word “democracy” has changed meanings and implications since the 1780s.

As has often been pointed out, it’s the worst possible form of government, except for all the others.

Unless you’d care to describe a preferable method?

It’s reasonable to point out that the original Constitution put major restrictions on the federal government, but very few indeed on actions of a state government within that state. IOW, the original Constitution would have had nothing to say about what was going on in Ferguson.

Democracy is centralized givernment.. top down political management..
ALways a mistake.. in every iteration..

DE-centralized giverment is much better.. like a republic..
even though most republics are democracy’s and NOT republics at all.. i.e. centralized.. aka banana republics..

Americas Republic is totally UNIQUE.... one copy..
Never before tried by anyone except here..

WHY.?. Canada and all of European and south american givernments are centralized..

AND WHY?... ALL democrats and most republicans are in fact DEMOCRATS.....
They are confused if not totally delusional..
and cannot or WON’T “SEE” democracy is a nasty thing, POLITICALLY FILTHY..

not to speak of stupid..
