'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.'

2018-12-19 12:06:53 UTC  

Democraty

2018-12-19 12:06:58 UTC  

A republic is a form of government in which the country is considered a โ€œpublic matterโ€, 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.

2018-12-19 12:07:09 UTC  

```but are attained through democracy```

2018-12-19 12:08:25 UTC  

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

2018-12-19 12:08:48 UTC  

WAIT I HAVE A GOLD POINT

2018-12-19 12:08:50 UTC  

BY DEFINITION ร€ REPUBLIC IS '(democratic state without monarch)'

2018-12-19 12:08:55 UTC  

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

2018-12-19 12:08:59 UTC  

TAKE THAT LIBTARD

2018-12-19 12:09:49 UTC  

So America is democracy

2018-12-19 12:10:20 UTC
