Which is why America is not a democracy

It's a constitutional republic

Nobody except Switzerland is a Democraty in the world

Isn't there a country with liquid democracy?

Monaco or something

America is a Constitutional Republic, using the system of Democratic Republics 😉

Switzerland

I have to look it up

it's called direct democracy

Y es

remove the 17th amendment

amend the 17th amendment

ratify the 28th amendment!

'Federal presidential constitutional republic' so yes America is not about Democraty

depends on how far you look,

cuz its a republic in which the candidates are voted on democratically 😉

Where you chose the winner

That's what a republic is

#notmypresident?

😛

'government by the people;
a form of government in which the supreme power rests with the people and is used directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system.'

Democraty

A republic is a form of government in which the country is considered a “public matter”, not the private concern or property of the rulers. The primary positions of power within a republic are not inherited, but are attained through democracy, oligarchy or autocracy. It is a form of government under which the head of state is not a monarch.

```but are attained through democracy```

the key difference between the Constitutional Republic that is America

And a general democracy,

Is that in a general democracy, whoever gets +50% of the votes wins

WAIT I HAVE A GOLD POINT

BY DEFINITION À REPUBLIC IS '(democratic state without monarch)'

in America you have systems like the electorial college, preventing a concentrated majority from deciding the rest of the citizens fate

TAKE THAT LIBTARD

So America is democracy

semantics
