Otherwise it will destroy this experiment we have called a Democratic Republic
I swear if you show to the same Halloween party as me we’re going to have problems because I’ve been planning that since last year.😝

Just imagine a country called America where we are all Americans first.

Federal Republic, fixed that for you.

America’s founding fathers intended the U.S. to be a Republic (elected officials vote on laws), rather than a Direct Democracy (everyone votes on laws).
More specifically, the founders intended the U.S. to be a “mixed-republic” comprised of a union of states (federalism), each with a republican government, ruled by elected officials and laws, bound by federal and state Constitutions, in which democratic and liberal principles were ensured. Indeed, they succeeded, and today the United States is a Constitutional Federal Republic; with a strong democratic tradition.
