Democracy

• "America may be the epitome of democracy, the best sort of government the world has ever identified. The globe envies our form of government by the individuals." • "America could be the freest nation on Earth." • "In America we have some thing called freedom which those in other countries don't have and wish they did." • "It's a free country." • "Everyone in the rest of the globe dreams of coming to America."

These cherished fanatical beliefs of America and its propagandists have no real basis really or reality, on the other hand they're chanted by a great deal of Americans, their media and education technique as a religion and set of Gospel truths that are universally agreed upon and unquestionable. Thus they are the antithesis to a totally free-thinking and fact-looking mind.

one) "America will be the epitome of freedom and democracy for the world to emulate. It will be the most desirable sort of government by the individuals that the globe envies."

We will find into freedom later, then again for now, let's address the democracy issue. Technically, a democracy is defined as a "rule by the majority". Hollywood, the media and our education method all chant that America is the epitome of democracy as even though it were a Gospel Truth that's universally agreed upon (nevertheless it is not by far). It is so ingrained in our culture that most never dare to question it.

The founding fathers in no way intended America to be a democracy and essentially didn't even believe in 1. Most Americans could be shocked to discover this. Anyone who casually researches the American style of government and its founding in the late 18th Century will see that technically, America was not set up as a democracy even so as a Constitutional Republic.

In fact, there is certainly no mention of the word "democracy" at the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. Even the Pledge of Allegiance cited by school children mentions that America is often a Republic:

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, 1 nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

The founding fathers had been intellectual elites who knew their history. They knew that a democracy was unsustainable, for it was in essence a rule by a lawless mob. The basic flaw in a democracy is that the majority is unrestrained.
