Thank you! I get a bit tired of explaining to people that we are not in fact a democracy and are in fact a republic, and why we are a republic as apposed to a democracy. Democracy in its truest form is mob rule, a republic is in fact set up to protect minorities (not racial) from mob rule, a fact the dems will not acknowledge and why they and ignorant Americans (like there is a difference) insist on referring to the United States as a democracy. I could go on buts its rather late.
