Small world, I've got a good friend in Tulsa, I did note your earlier statement "In a democracy, the people get the government they deserve", do you view us (meaning America as a whole) as still being a Republic, or a 'democracy'?

I view America as a representative democracy where corrupt, ignorant, apathetic and even downright stupid voters, or at least a plurality of those how actually bother to vote, continuously elect corrupt politicians who time and time again use the legal document on which our long dead Republic was based as toilet paper.
