Why is a Constitutional Republic more proper than a democracy?

Oh. I must have had you confused with somebody else.
You obviously are VERY confused.
Get this! Some dope said


Can you believe the nonsense.

I'm glad it wasn't you.
Random phrases. No apparent coherency.
The Athens Democracy was. But since you're not the one who used that as an example, I guess that doesn't apply. A democracy may or may not be complex. Depends on the size of the state it governs, I would guess. But that's not relevant to my point anyway.
A democracy isn't a complex form of government.
You are not making a point.
 
What about them?
The US isn't any of them. You apparently have zero English reading comprehension.

Please complete your thought
I did. You didn't understand it. The US is not one of them. You have a serious cognitive handicap that cannot be blamed on anyone else.

And again, this is not about me.
Yes, you made it about you and your intention to EVADE rational discussion, presumably because you have no idea what you are talking about.

It's a concept in Political Science.
You say that as though you would somehow know.

Used worldwide by ALL nations in the world and international organizations.
I'll share a little human psychology with you. You are broadcasting your complete insecurity in your own position, as if your position is not really your position, but is actually a position that you fully realize is totally bogus and about which you are very much ashamed, but that you have been ordered by someone else to regurgitate door-to-door.

As such, you preemptively throw up the barrier "Used worldwide by ALL nations in the world and international organizations" as though you imagine that you somehow speak for all nations worldwide in the world (I did appreciate your redundancy) and international organizations. I really hate to splash you with cold water but you do not speak for anyone but yourself. You totally own every single one of your stupid ideas, and you are not backed by anyone ... except your mother who, I'm sure, will bring another batch of her awesome cookies to you in the basement if you call to her upstairs.

You want to deny it and come up with your own personal definitions, fine by me.
You are alone. Your stupid ideas and terms and gibberish reveal you to be an uneducated but OBEDIENT butt-boy, ... not someone who might possibly be able to contribute to a discussion.

The US is a republic and is not a democracy. Go back and tell your thought-masters that their Marxism crap isn't gaining any traction.
 
The US isn't any of them.
THAT was your point? That the US isn't an Afghan Jirga?

Ok...

That might sound to any casual reader like a dumb observation. But, believe it or not, it's the only factual thing this poster has said in this whole debate. So don't be too harsh when you judge him.

I guess that wraps it up.

Thanks for playing....
 
A review of the electoral college and its history many here haven't read or care about.. It was basically the first 'super delegate' gimmick, used to disenfranchise a significant percentage of the voter base. Democrats implemented a variation of it in the 1980's in their own Party rules, disenfranchising pretty nearly the same base of voters in their Primaries. The GOP will probably follow suit after Trump's coup, given how easy it was for Trump to run around the RNC and the Bushes and the Republican establishment.


Many of the reasons for adopting it are long gone and no longer relevant.


Electors must meet in their home States and never as a unified body. The framers
believed that by keeping the electors scattered throughout the country, they reduced op-
portunity for “intrigue or cabal” among electors in influencing the outcome of an election.


This one in particular is made invalid by the two party monopoly and national organizing; neither are 'local' and certainly are cabals, big ones.

DNC used superdelegates to subvert primary voters. They lost with Hillary.

For those as ignorant as you are, yes, I'm sure it is.
The different "fascist" movements and regimes have varied considerably in their specific goals and practices, but they are usually said to be characterized by several common features:

  1. Militant nationalism, proclaiming the racial and cultural superiority of the dominant ethnic group and asserting that group's inherent right to a special dominant position over other peoples in both the domestic and the international order
  2. The adulation of a single charismatic national leader said to possess near superhuman abilities and to be the truest representation of the ideals of the national culture, whose will should therefore literally be law

lol FDR was elected 4 times. His charisma was certainly a factor in his abilities to lead and promote his programs.

#1 is not a factor in all fascist agendas, just the examples used as propaganda narratives.
