CPAC: Speaker pledges end of American democracy to wild applause.

I think it's bipartisan because 4 members are appointed by Dems and 4 members are appointed by Republicans.

That seems pretty fucking bipartisan to me.
that would depend on who the repubes are,, a lot of them are just dems in repube garb,,

And the other two? Ah yes, "independents"
 
get back to me when youve read the constitution since it will answer all your questions,,
We have clearly reached the limits of your intellectual capacity.

It's okay. Not everyone is meant for critical independent thought.

youre the one that doesnt know what it says,,

so your projecting isnt going to work,,
 
You are the gold standard on this board for the rote SJW moron.
Convincing me is pointless. I have no legal authority.

The constitution requires you convince the courts, or a jury.

It doesn't, and even if it did, it's not necessarily correct.

The fundamental question is how does one define "the public" of a Republic.
 
you asked a lot of questions and all them them can be answered by reading the constitution,,
That's simply not true.

Are we a republic if only white land-owning males are allowed to vote, meanwhile black people are kept as slaves?

The constitution doesn't answer this question. You avoid it like the plague.

The reason you avoid the question is because not all republics are created equal. Some are more democratic and some are less democratic. That's because a republic only means that the public are represented. The public can mean anything and the representation can be chosen in a number of ways.

The democratic part of the republic reflects how we vote for those representatives. If the ability to vote is unencumbered and extended to more people, we are more democratic. If the ability to vote is limited to a small number of people, then we are less democratic.

Don't bother replying. I know you have nothing intelligent to say on the matter. I've given you every opportunity to engage in rational discussion and you've rejected them.
