This Is What Democracy Looks Like?

To the Editor:

Supporting Debra Frank’s great letter, I ask the follow-up question, “What does a constitutional republic look like? ”

That sign, to which she refers, infers only one party knows what a democracy looks like and the other party does not. Ask several people what our form of government looks like? Be prepared as they pose a plethora of politically correct answers. There is a huge difference between a constitutional republic and a democracy yet we always talk about our country as a democracy. There is nothing politically correct about what our founding fathers created in preparation for the Pledge of Allegiance in the words of “the republic for which it stands.” Forces are at work to fundamentally alter our republic along historically flawed and unsuccessful social and economic principles. Where will you stand this November and four years from now? Look in the mirror. Scary? Not your reflection, the potential of how a new world order will affect Debra, you and me. Protect our democratic republic.
