    It never was a democracy. The fact that the popular vote and the representative vote can produce different results proves this.

      No it doesn’t, it just proves that you don’t know what a representative democracy is. The electrical college is bullshit, but it’s still somewhat democratic

        Take your “somewhat” to someone who cares. The electoral college is a piece of biased shit and it can burn in hell.

          The point is that direct democracy is just one form of democracy and not having the people directly vote for President doesn’t make us undemocratic (so much other shit does that).
