Its funny that we have said that line everyday yet we never hear our government referred to as a Republic and for a good reason. A democracy in essence is when the Individual, and any group of Individuals composing any Minority, have no protection against the unlimited power of The Majority. It is a case of Majority-over-Man.
A Republic which is what our government originated as, on the other hand its purpose is to strictly control the Majority Group, as well as all others among the people, primarily to protect The Individual’s God-given, unalienable rights and therefore for the protection of the rights of The Minority, of all minorities, and the liberties of people in general.
We lost that a long time ago unfortunately.
