Funny thing is, I would've skipped the comment a few years ago as well.
America in its original intended form is the better option. The key is unalienable rights that keep a democracy from infringing on the rights of minorities and individuals.
Unalienable rights guarantee the rights of minorities and individuals.
An unalieanable right is a right that cannot be taken away, not even by a 100% majority vote. Unalienable rights cannot be legislated away, and they cannot be ruled away by a supreme court. Government institutions cannot add qualifiers to unalienable rights.
America is a country of unalienable rights. The Constitution does not grant those rights. The Constitution explicitly tells the government that it cannot, and shall not, infringe on those rights
