A constitutional republic, not a democracy

The ideal of a democracy is universal equality.  
The ideal of a constitutional republic is individual liberty.


A democracy always degenerates into dictatorship which promises government-guaranteed equality and security. But it delivers nothing but poverty and serfdom for the people it robs and rules.

America was founded as a constitutional republic - to safeguard the liberties of the people against the tyranny of democracy or a one-man dictatorship.

In this century, great strides have been made toward the goal of subverting our republic into a democracy.  The foremost tactic of subverters is subversion of language. By calling America a democracy until people thoughtlessly accept and use the term, the totalitarians  have obscured the real meaning of our principles of government.
