I DON'T want this nation to become a Democracy.

We democratically elect our representatives. That does not make us a Democracy. We are ruled by a Constitution. That is what a Republic is. We have several layers of Republics (local/state/federal). That is what Federated is. We are a Federated Republic, not a Democracy.
