I will go with "Not the guy who doesn't know what democracy is" for $50 alex.
Do you get to vote?
Its a democracy.
It was set up as a Constitutional Republic. Democracy at the Federal level was virtually non existent. "The People" had no vote on the senate, President, or Vice President. Only the House of Representatives involved a popular vote at the federal level. Senators were selected by State houses, and the House and Senate elected President and Vice President.
Our current system is a perversion of the system established by our founders, and allowed a much higher impact regarding mob rule, the ultimate tyranny, than was ever intended.
Once again, you don't know our history, or our political system. Feel free to discontinue your attempts to lecture us on it.
