One of the questions was: What type of government is America (something like that) and the 4 possible answers were:

1. Monarchy
2. Progressive Fascism

I was taught that in school back in '08. I took a test and I answered the question of what type of government we have. I put in Constitutional Republic and the teacher marked it a wrong. I was 7 in '08. And I lived in the red state of South Carolina at the time and I still do.

Our country is a representative democracy.

...and to the Republic for which it stands

And you're still wrong.

Are you trying to make the case that we don't directly vote on our representation and laws.

Ignoramus a republic IS a form of democratic governing called REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY.

Not really. We are a Constitutional Republic we have no form of democracy. Japan is more of a democracy than us.

We're a Republic (if we can keep it)

Hilarious

By constitutional republic you mean white minority rule, right.

Whats "not really'??? In what way are we not a representative democracy?

People vote for REPRESENATIVES who govern them - that is at very definition of both representative democracy and a republic.

So, about your vote for Fat Elvis and his lust for authoritarian rule...

Our form of government is a representative democracy. Not sure how you can deny that.

Whites are the majority in this country. You need to go back to school.

 

[otto105]

did you vote for gay marriage

Yes.

Just like we voted for the disastrous Citizens United ruling.

What part of we are both a republic and a representative democracy do you not get? They are synonymous.

 

[otto105]

Whites are the majority in this country. You need to go back to school.

Hilarious

Why do you think that we have the maga movement? It's based on white fear.
