To quote Dr. Franklin, it's a Republic if we can keep it. Some days, I have doubts about whether or not we are trying that hard to keep it.

We still have time to take our country back. There is a nasty movement among international leaders allied with the business/ corporate world called globalism. They want the UN or some corporate cabal based in the Pacific Rim to run the world.
Their tools are confusion and endoctrination and political correctness. Their war of confusion is being conducted on the American people right now and their arch enemy is the American Constitution. These globalist swine believe no people should have rights. They want the people to be worker drones in a global corporate communist society.
There are political theories out there that say that globalism will not work in reality. Let's hope it doesn't because we all lose--all the people. We have to fight this. The globalists have to be shut down.

It never was a direct democracy, nor was it ever intended to be one. The federal government was set up to be a democratic republic. If anything it has become more democratic since its early days. All citizens have the right to vote, there is no more poll tax, and Senators are chosen by the people, not by the state legislatures.

We were never a democracy to begin with; we are a Constitutional Republic. with a 3-branch system of government:
1) Executive Branch
2) Judicial Branch
3) Legislative Branch

Are we supposed to take you seriously?
There are about 13 yahoos marketing themselves for a presidential election. Isn't that the kind of thing you do when you have a democracy?
Put the weed down.
Step away from the weed.

America never has been a true democracy. It is a representative republic. Now the current administration and the neo-cons are doing their best to turn the US into a fascist police state.
