A republican form of government has nothing to do with the Republican party. Just because they took that name doesn't mean that's what they stand for. No wonder we have ended up where we are when we have so many ignorant citizens like yourself.

We need a system where those who vote have to take tests. To prove they know what the candidates have sponsored, cosponsored, voted yes/no on. The more you know, the more your vote counts for.
This should apply to the citizens and those who serve in congress.

@ oldhacks the wars are due to progressive thinking. The progressives at the turn of the centuary infiltrated both parties. So this is why you should if you vote, vote on individual and check what their background is, and how they say things. To prevent mob rule this is why we have the Electoral College.

The problem is that you - along with many who uphold the mantle of Americanism - have been distracted by the fear of "collectivists" You were looking down when you should look up.
There is no longer a balance of power between individuals & the corporate interests.
You hesitate to criticize them out of a concern that you might violate your principles - "don't punish success" you're told - and so you comply, and as a result we're slowly being made into serfs for a new type of American feudalism.

Personally, the vision of the "America" that is expressed in this video is a beautiful one, romantic even, and that's something I can appreciate. I'd really like to live in THAT America.
But I am sorry to say, That America ceased to exist long ago. Long before Obama, before LBJ or even FDR.
The oligarchy that the video constantly alludes to has already taken over. It was born during the American industrial Revolution and the vast sums of wealth that corrupted the political process.
A group, in this case he uses a "council of earls", not the highest ranking title in the Peerage btw, DOES NOT choose who becomes King. That matter is determined by birth and the rights of succession.
I think Monarchy/Aristocracy is a very odd form of "dictatorship" and meritocracy because a lot of the people promoted to nobles did something that earned them and their family that title, not to mention that a lot of nobles served in the military and in politics.

@pwkid, Irrelevant. However it is done - doesn't really matter. What matters is that these people give themselves the right to rule over others by some "divine right of rule" that supposedly traces back to Christ, himself. These people are megalomaniacs, meaning that they're the insane bastard products of royal incest.

Woah woah woah, a Monarchy IS NOT a government "where a group puts one of its members upfront."
Sorry but a monarchy is a government system in which Sovereignty is INHERITED through family ties. A King's council was mostly there as an advisory board, that is until they started to grab powers for themselves to check the King's own powers, such as in the UK.
"The men behind the scenes," were mostly administrators, who were peers, of territories that legally belonged to the Crown.

@pwkid , This is garbage. It doesn't matter how the "front man" is selected, whether by vote or by lineage. You've missed the entire point of the lesson and I'm going to block you for using this channel as a forum for such nonsense.

@vedicwarrior lol wow. You ban people that try to give more accurate information instead of trying to see why it may be correct OR wrong.

@pwkid G'bye. The whole point of the video is that the American people have erected a new form of government that COMPLETELY REJECTS THIS TYPE OF EUROPEAN HORSECRAP.
More accurate information? More accurate irrelevancies? You're an idiot. Period.
