I would argue that the fact voters choose to delegate some of their responsibilities to representatives as a practical necessity does not make the process of government less democratic.

What you fail to acknowledge is that voters are forced to delegate some of their responsibilities to representatives. There is no system by which we can bypass our representatives and cast our own votes in the Houses of Congress.

Realistically, the only means by which we could do such would be to elect enough representatives who would amend the Constitution to allow such right by the citizens of the country.

Not at all. The Constitution is not amended in that way because most voters recognize that direct votes on all bills would be impractical. In the age of the internet, the technical obstacles to direct vote could easily be overcome, but how many of the people you know would you trust to put in the effort to understand the issues and technicalities and implications of these bills well enough to make an informed and intelligent decision?

Hell with 'internet voting' we need to bring back the paper ballot, so we don't have Iran type of results.
