    Americans have been talking about democracy for over 200 years. The rebranding of what America stands for is the new thing.

    You'v been -ismed and -yed into 1984 land. Democracy is now tyranny. Socialism is autocracy. Freedom is unpatriotic

    Pure democracy would be a Tyranny of the Majority. I do not want that.

    I prefer our Democratic Republic.

    You prefer the tyranny of the highly focused narrow minority we presently enjoy.

    We have allowed the American Oligarchy (moneyed individuals and their corporations) to co-opt our democratic process.

    Corporations are not people, whether that business is privately or publicly held.

    Campaign financing has allowed those with the $$$ to control the elected officials.
