Not legitimately communist, however, our president (don't blame me, I didn't vote for him either time)...sometimes ACTS like a dictator and our governement seems to be run by a bunch of pansies who can't seem to get it through the president's head exactly what the AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT... our legislatures are SUPPOSED to be telling the president what the COUNTRY wants... but instead only seem to be telling the president what HE WANTS TO HEAR or he isn't listening anyway....one or the other. A LOT of our freedoms are being stripped EVERY SINGLE DAY.... we are more WATCHED, taped, spied on then at any other time in HISTORY... Uncle George even decided all by himself that WIRE TAPPING that has been ILLEGAL FOR DECADES is OK for HIM to do....... hopefully after the next election, we can get our country back and HOPEFULLY point our legislatures back to the direction we VOTED THEM to go in... OURS

Democratic and communist, as concepts, are not mutually exclusive. Once is a political category, the other is more an economic one.
Our society is capitalist in how our government chooses to run things, but if we elected representatives who chose to go more socialist and/or communist, that would not actually be contrary to democracy, per se.
However, I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or rhetorically overblown in your question.

How did you come upon this realization, watching American tv or talking to a radical American Dem on the Internet?
Why do you want to perpetuate anger by trying to incite Americans? If you'll watch closely, you'll see that's the difference between Americans and nonAmericans. Which is more rational and mature?

I seriously recommend you purchase yourself a dictionary and look up the definition of communist.
If you're referring to a dictatorship then the word your looking for is Stalinist.
But considering the current administrations politics it would be closer to Nazism.

Yes, mostly communist under the disguise of democracy...even though we were originally set up as a republic, not a democracy. Taking from the rich to give to the poor sounds great and dandy, but it's a communist idea!

They were not.
The current administration is more Neo-Fascist.
The opposite of communist.
