Hear so often how the US is a democracy when most know we aren't. We're a "Constitutional Republic." A Democracy would mean the whole citizenry votes on everything which doesn't seem practical. Instead, a Republic elects representatives who vote at the various levels of government. Yet when we invade and conqueor weak countries like Iraq (heh) we install true democractic systems. Yet don't practice that system ourselves. Why? Just not practical with so many citizens, or are we against actual democracy?
