Since before VietNam we've been running around the world talking about "spreading Democracy". This "the US isn't a Democracy" thing is very recent and yet another republican attempt at low key fascism.I still say that calling this nation a democracy is like calling a firearm magazine a clip. It is technically wrong.
I understand what you are saying and mean. I just like to use the correct terminology when discussing our government.
If we had a real democracy we would not have the Electoral College. Presidential candidates would not even bother to visit the states with lower population as they would be considered totally unimportant.
