Why is America a democratic country?
It is a democracy because people govern themselves. It is representative because people choose elected officials by free and secret ballot. It is a republic because the Government derives its power from the people.
You're confusing ''A Democracy'' with ''democracy.''
"A Democracy'' is a form of government whereas rule is by omnipotent Majority, while ''democracy'' itself is a feature of ''A Republic.''
But the talking heads know that most people will not grasp the double meaning, which is why they threw that whole ''Our Democracy'' catch phrase out there in the first place; to plant seeds in the minds of regurgitators in the expectation that they will...well..regurgitate that nonsense....
