Define democracy? You mean like actual representative democracy where Proportional Representation gets a govt, or some ancient electoral college thingy where 3m votes mean nothing in the end?

You really going to whine about that. Bush won by pop against gore. Obama beat romeny and had 2 years where dems ran congress and presidency. Yall had the power to change anything. You didnt. So take a seat and enjoy the ride.

It's ok thanks, I live in a country with MMP & my local council votes with STV. I'm as proportional as can be. I like proper democracy & we don't tend to have a Nuclear pissing contest with deranged dictators.

Jefferson and founders afraid to put the word "democracy" in constitution because they knew would be a problem, instead created a federalist system.

Democracy never works. That is why Republics were formed, and even those are hard to keep. Especially when most of it is comprised of far left traitors and seditionists.
