Wow! People still don't realize that we have a republican democracy for two reasons:

1. To provide input from the populous.

Can't wait for the next Constitutional Convention so we can maybe get a chance to change over to a parliamentary democracy like the rest of Western Civilization.

(Of course, I'm always open to being persuaded otherwise...)

GOP Mess AmeriKKKa...
