Democracy is a political system which has many different meanings and can take different forms. It is often incorrectly used as a synonym for capitalism. Fundamentally, it means a government of, by and for the people. Protesting is a HUGE part of democracy.
You can claim it has many meanings but in political theory it has one. What the US Constitution created was not democracy but a negative rights protecting constitutional democratic republic. Democracy doesn't dictate an economic system simply the form of dictating rules for governing. Protesting has nothing to do with that.

democracy? The US Constitution does not create a democracy. Democracy is majority rules and has nothing to do with rights.

Protesting has a LOT to do with the American Constitution.
Ever hear of the right to assemble?
Right of redress?
But this is a moot point,
the Bush administration decided long ago
that the Constitution is irrelevant to their form of government.
What did Bush call it?
Oh, yes-
a "god damned piece of paper."
