Yep not once did they refer to the US as a democracy, however......
United States
The United States of America (USA), commonly referred to as the United States (U.S.) or America, is a federal republic[18][19] composed of 50 states, a federal district, five major territories and various possessions.

Yes I already fully understand that.

It can't get any clearer than that.
A democracy is a government that is elected by the people.
I don't think I live in the "Government"
Although some of you have your heads so far up their ass a case can be made, maybe BeanBrain is right?

Vulgar insults prove nothing except the vulgarity of the person who uses them.

Then you admit your whole argument is nonsense, and you are calling members names here for nothing, except your own spiteful nature.

I have my moments, but I try not to go overboard, or depend on such tactics when I have no good argument.
Still, dig up examples if you want. Should be fun for both of us.

You are making an argument that depends on your claim to rigid control on the meaning of words. The language is used more loosely, and you aren't in charge of it. Calling one's nation a democracy, if popular elections choose the main governing officials, is ordinary and accurate.

You do whatever you have to to 'win,' in your own mind. It's always all on the line, every day. You might ask yourself why....
