For some reason conservatives say America is a republic and not a democracy as and argument to keep the Electoral College | The United States is both a democracy and a republic. It’s just that we’re a REPRESENTATIVE democracy and not a direct democracy. So stop saying that America is a republic and not a democracy. It’s really annoying. | image tagged in memes,guy holding cardboard sign,america,america is both a republic and a democracy | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Two things, no again. I wrote that tagline months ago, and two, when I said I don't remember seeing your name, that also means I don't remember your memes.

As much as I support keeping the electoral college, I also think that saying that America isn't a democracy is kinda stupid.

Okay, I've changed my mind. America is not really a democracy since the people have basically almost say in how the government ACTUALLY functions (voting does not necessarily equal democracy). But I'd say that's a BAD thing, not a good thing like many conservatives online say it is.
