The Constitution establishes a federal democratic republic form of government. That is, we have an indivisible union of 50 sovereign States. It is a democracy because people govern themselves. It is representative because people choose elected officials by free and secret ballot.

That republic your so fond of quoting turns out it’s kind of a....democracy
I mean don’t take my word for it maybe read the constitution
If you scroll up, you'll see that I quoted a couple of Founders who were actually there. Benjamin Franklin called it a republic and James Madison, the author of the Constitution, is quoted as saying he despised democracies.

I'll take the word of the guys who wrote the Constitution.

I have moved on from this conversation as one, it is off topic and two, I've said all I have to say on the subject. I even wrote it all down for your reading pleasure.

They were smarter, wiser and braver than you a
They were smarter, wiser and braver than you are though.

Seems smart gets to talk smack about something and then goes ahead and signs up for something completely different sounds like an ass.

Your defence is I quoted a guy who said it’s not a duck and then signed a document saying I love ducks and this is definitely a duck.

At this point, it's clear you are just a cult member. I have 234 more years of experience than those douchebags, while you want to ignore what happened in the mean time and dream of living in the past.

Yeah they did one thing you like, which was arguably good on balance, but there is no need to go all "kim jong un" on them.

It's worse, the argument is "it can't be a duck, because the person who made the duck said they didn't like ducks". We have no idea whether he was deranged, or whether he was playing to two audiences. A bit like how Trump handled the Covid 19 pandemic and January 6th riots.

Just because you perceive it to be a duck doesn't mean it is actually a duck. Once again, I will trust the guy who actually wrote the Constitution over some nobody on a tech forum.

That's a lot of projection there for a Branch Covidian who spent the last couple of years worshipping Fauci, saying he is smarter than peer reviewed cardiologists and Harvard Medical doctors.

What is it with you right wing southerners oh I know it’s cause you all worship men like madison.

I quote
One of the few insights Feldman provides into Madison's personal life was his failed attempt to court Catherine "Kitty" Floyd, the daughter of one his fellow delegates to the Continental Congress. Kitty was 15 at the time; Madison was 32.

Yeah nice guy that madison

First of all, I'm not a southerner. I'm a Texan. Huge difference. What is it with leftists and accusing others of worshipping people? No wonder you all are called NPC's, you say the same things to the same people. Try having an original thought.

It was common in the 1700's for early marriages. People had to have big families to work on the family farm and you can't have big families if women didn't start having babies until they were 30.

Maybe now would be a good time to bring up Biden showering with his daughter. Nice guy that you support.

Learn some history, Scooter, before running your mouth.

There's no such thing as alternative facts. That's just a word the groomer media told you to say.
Actually it was your hero Trump and his cabal who had the idea... senility once again.


State the lie
You said "america isn't a democracy", which may be true under RepubliKKKan administration but we aren't there yet.

Lol Texas is in the South of the US, more of your embarrassing hair-splitting distinctions without meaningful differences. No wonder you're a small-time NPC with no original thoughts except your cultist parrot-like vomiting.

The term used is fake news. And considering their TV ratings are down and WaPo lost 500 thousand subscribers last year, I'm not the only one who thinks that's true.

Rep Adam Schiff was getting people censored and banned for wrongthink, just like a fascist.

Still twice the man you are. They also kicked your British ass, lol.

Go talk to a New Yorker and a Bostonian and try to tell them they are the same and see what kind of reaction you get. Better yet, go tell somebody from London and somebody from Belfast they are the same. They are both from the UK after all.

I accept your surrender

Which means 10 times the "man" you are?

Ah yes the "censorship" which somehow is always decried but never happens.

It's alternative facts as well. You know who else is dropping? Newsmax, fox and the rest of your crap.

Sure. Whatever you say. Don't call us when Russia's on your doorstep.

Recycling what I say is not a good look.

Except it's proven in emails now. Looks like somebody watches CNN and doesn't know what is going on.

Good. Fox News and Newsmax have been exposing who they really are for a few years now. I hope they suffer more than CNN and WaPo.

So when your master is on our doorstep?

I improved it because you were being a bit silly and your statements are just sad.

Nothing in that email talks about censorship, how interesting that someone who'd go out of his way to embarass himself by saying the US isn't a democracy but a "Republic" by splitting hairs would now go for such a broad and vastly inaccurate interpretation. Almost as if you're being your usual NPC indoctrinated self.

You know, I'd almost be inclined to believe this statement if you didn't regurgitate constantly their talking points, like a good NPC.

English really isn't your primary language. Paul Sperry ended up getting his account banned.

I have never had nice things to say about Fox News and I dare you to point to where I did.

Man, @Dark_Ansem is fucking boring. When are you going to develop a character? We all know what @TraderPatTX is, but what are you? Maybe avoiding paying child support was interesting, for somebody.
Dark_Assem is just a troll and flamer. He flames every single thread he comments on. I have yet to see him add anything constructive to any conversation on GBATemp. I gotta say though, it is getting boring proving this guy wrong every single day.

Luckily you never did so...

You are obviously illiterate, because that's not what I said.

The USA is a democracy, no matter how flawed it is, and for the little time it remains. So for all your harping about "English not being primary language" you're amazingly illiterate.

I improve the threads you infest with your nonsense so... you're wrong.
