[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fact that so many on this forum do not understand that the structure of this country was set up as a republic and not a democracy is troubling. We have a House that represents the population. California has much more representation than Alaska. It is about balancing. Otherwise, only the large metropolitan cities: especiallly NYC, LA, and Chicago would be making deisions for all of us.[/quote] A republic is a form of a democracy, you ninny. I really hate this anti-democracy line of argument that has infected American conservatives. It just belies the fact that they think certain people shouldn't have full rights - both de facto and de jure - in the United States. It also gives our authoritarian enemies a huge opening to paint the US as no better than China, Russia, etc where the will of the people is thwarted by elites. Just be honest and say what you really mean.[/quote]
