That is a Constitutional Republic if we can keep it. Why anyone would be against that is beyond me? My guess is they have no idea of what a Constitutional Republic is and why our country was founded on that principle. Indeed a Democracy is thee most vile form of governing. Those that wish for that better be careful of what they wish for as they could one day find themselves in the minority.
Sorry to disagree, but that's the propaganda version.
The republican form is not synonymous with a republic, and it existed BEFORE the constitution, therefore can not be a "Constitutional Republic. FWIW - the Peoples Republic of China is a republic but NOT a republican form.
. . .
In a republican form, all men are created equal (before the law) and have Creator endowed rights that governments were instituted to secure. . . and nothing more without consent of the governed.
That means that the original delegation is to adjudicate disputes, prosecute criminals, and defend against all enemies, foreign or domestic.
BUT
Once you grant consent to govern, all bets are off, shut up, sit down, pay and obey.
The current socialist democracy is what most people think is the "constitutional republic."
SOVEREIGNS WITHOUT SUBJECTS
“... at the Revolution, the sovereignty devolved on the people, and they are truly the sovereigns of the country, but they are sovereigns without subjects, and have none to govern but themselves. . .
“... In Europe, the sovereignty is generally ascribed to the Prince; here, it rests with the people; there, the sovereign actually administers the government; here, never in a single instance; our Governors are the agents of the people, and, at most, stand in the same relation to their sovereign in which regents in Europe stand to their sovereigns.”
- - - Justice John Jay, Chisholm v. Georgia, 2 U.S. 2 Dall. 419 419 (1793)
“All men” -“The People”- Americans are sovereigns without subjects.
“The government” serves (not rules) the sovereign people.
But those who consent to be governed (in order to participate) are subjects of that sovereign government... citizens.
If you awaken to the fact that Americans are sovereigns and not subject citizens, unless they consent, you will have voided the indoctrination that has brainwashed the nation for decades.
Once out of their vile democracy, where the majority can legally persecute a minority, the birthright is restored and you are a beneficiary of the republican form of government once more.
I doubt it will happen but for this country I hope it is true.
I said the same about Obama and was disappointed.
Can we all get together and at least HOPE he is great?
your going to have to wait for me to process the hate and bigotry from the left over the last 4 years.
i hope and pray that America survives and thrives.
it only took joe 1 day to kill 10k jobs and offer up the empathetic "they can get new jobs" retort for me to see him as something other than.... best...
so i only promise not to act like my leftist bigoted fellow citizens.
He can't be best president, the dementia will get him, and for now I have to believe the drugs he's being fed keep him going...time will all tell, won't it.

I just don't understand how anything you posted relates to whether this nation was originally founded as a Constitutional Republic or not? This has nothing to do what some people may think it is. Or what this country may have evolved into or what we are evolving into. I certainly do not like the direction we are headed that's for sure a "socialist democracy" if you will. Myself I call it an authoritarian socialist aristocracy ruled by oligarchs. We are indeed becoming subjects however that was never the founders intention. Unfortunately "we the people" are allowing our corrupt government and judiciary to get away it. Every time I hear the word Democracy I want to puke.

To quote Limbaugh: "I hope he fails". By that, I mean he's the best president EVER. Because his policies are completely opposite of what is good for America.
You are misquoting what Limbaugh said. He said it about Obama and he said, "I hope his policies fail."
