As I said many liberals are ignorant in civics and like you keep trying to sell the myth the US is a democracy!

    YOU are mixing up the definitiions of several terms


    democracy


    pure democracy


    direct democracy




    the first one is not the same as the last two


    the last two are the same


    stop lying

    you dont get to pretend its your choice

    words have set meanings.
    Yes they do have meaning. Unfortunately, the first two times you mentioned democracy you failed to mention we are a representative republic following democratic principles. It wasn't until after this was pointed out to you that you decided to throw in republic. Many of the framers were afraid of pure democracy.

    So yes, junior, words do have meaning.

    I did. We are not discussing the definition of a democracy. We are discussing the formation of the republic and a representative republic. You with us, loinfo?

    https://www.britannica.com/topic/direct-democracy



    Direct democracy, also called pure democracy, forms of direct participation of citizens in democratic decision making in contrast to indirect or representative democracy, based on the sovereignty of the people. This can happen in the form of an assembly democracy or by initiative and referendum with ballot voting, with direct voting on issues instead of for candidates or parties. Sometimes the term is also used for electing representatives in a direct vote as opposed to indirect elections (by voting for an electing body, electoral college, etc.) as well as for recalling elected officeholders. Direct democracy may be understood as a full-scale system of political institutions, but in modern times, it means most often specific decision-making institutions in the broader system environment of representative democracy.

    I guess next time you try and impress us with your knowledge you will choose you words cautiously. Since the country is NOT A PURE DEMOCRACY it is not relevant who wins the popular vote.

    Supreme Court denies RNC bid to end voter fraud consent decree
    January 14, 2013|



    WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court has refused to lift a 30-year consent decree that bars the Republican National Committee from targeting racial and ethnic minorities in its efforts to end fraudulent voting.
    The justices without comment turned down an appeal from RNC lawyers who said the decree has become “antiquated” and is “increasingly used as political weapon” by Democrats during national campaigns.
    For their part, lawyers for the Democratic National Committee had argued that recent campaigns show the “consent degree remains necessary today.”
    The court’s action is a victory for the DNC, and it comes after an election year in which the two parties regularly exchanged charges over “voter fraud” and “voter intimidation.” But most of the recent battles have been fought on the state level, and it is not clear whether the long-standing consent decree has had much impact.
