The democracy’s “rights and privileges “ go to the majority who then dominate and eliminate the minority. This is why the democrats insist on a democracy.

Actually as I have stated, Democracy is mob rule, 51 % tells the other 49%, what they can and not do, Democracy is the precursor to socialism, after all period of time, and Government gains more power (Agencies/Departments), it becomes Communism, and with the take over of the means of production, it will quickly slide into a dictatorship.The word “Democracy @ is No where in the US Constitution. Republic is.

What type of democracy is the US? The United States is a representative democracy. This means that our government is elected by citizens. Here, citizens vote for their government officials. These officials represent the citizens' ideas and concerns in government.What are the 3 parts of democracy? The purpose of separation of powers is to promote democracy by preventing the concentration of power in one branch of government. Legislative branch passes laws. Executive branch enforces laws. Judicial branch interprets laws.

The United States is a republic because it has a system of elected representatives and a constitution that defines the government's powers. It is also a democracy because those representatives are chosen by the people through elections. Therefore, the U.S. can accurately be described as both a republic and a democracy.
