Proof That America is a Republic NOT A Democracy !!!!
This is but a 1/4 of the magnificent Documentary created by the John Birch Society.
It is narrated by John McManus and clearly points to America as being a Republic, NOT a Democracy.
Be sure to set aside time to view all 4 parts of this Documentary by going to THE JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY page. This is part 2 & 3. Part 1 points to our heritage and why the founders did everything they could to keep us from becoming a Democracy. Part 4 clearly defines the differences between Capitalism and Socialism/Communism.
The United States is not a Democracy
it is a Republic
I'm sure most never learned this in school (unless you attended a private or parochial school)......
James Madison (father of the Constitution) wrote in the Federalist Papers, "Democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property, and have in general been as sort in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths".
Alexander Hamilton said, "We are a Republican government. Real liberty is never found in despotism or in the extremes of democracy".
Samuel Adams (signer of the Declaration of Independence said, "Democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts and murders itself".
The founders knew that the democracy of the early Greeks produced some of the wildest excesses of government imaginable.
The Democrats in Congress (and currently the White House) are trying their hardest to convince Americans that we are a Democracy. The only way to achieve their 2 class system is to do just that. You'll have the servers and the served. They required a "dumbed down electorate" and it begins with withholding valuable information regarding our history.
You've heard the adage "a people who don't learn from history, are doomed to repeat it", well where the Romans are concerned, our democrats are trying their HARDEST to repeat it.
Watch this excellent video and see if you don't see today's government hidden in Roman history.
Our people, had better learn the difference soon, or it will be too late.
