Democracy vs. Republic: Most aren't taught the difference -
In this excerpt from a seminar by Martin Red Beckman, the difference between a Democracy and a Constitutional Republic is examined.

Most of us are not taught this difference in school, nor is the type of government envisioned by the founders practiced in the USA.

The rest of the seminar examines more closely the power of the people OVER the government, and how you can exercise that power in the Constitutional Republic.

As I was explained, a Democracy in the Wild West is 24 members of a lynch mob rounding up a lone gunman and voting 24 to 1 to hang him. A Republic is the Sheriff coming in and saying the gun man has to be given a fair trial before being hanged.

Thats how I see it.

So either were in a police state or a republic.
