This is an excerpt from "Overview of America" produced by The John Birch Society. It is narrated by John McManus.
The true American form of government was meant to be a constitutional republic not a democracy, or anything else. Democracy means mob rule. 51% of the people rule the other 49%.

The first element of good goverment being the virtue and intelligence of the human beings composing the community,the most important point of excellence which any form of government can possess is to promote the virtue and intelligence of the people themseives.

@Laughingblades you are 100 % "in the know" side. The meaning of the words has changed with the years. We live in an oligarchy, ruled by google,microsoft, etc, etc, the front runner is just .... a doll, a toy of a few and the pain of many. People think they are free but, Really? Look SOPA (WHO SAYS THAT THIS LAW IS NOT ILLEGALLY IMPLEMENTED?), or the new law that gives gov. the power to detain U.S Citizens. I am very concerned about my son's future.

who writes the laws in a republic? the few? corporations? the majority? a unanimous vote? it is obvious to me there is no safe form of government, it will always become an oligarchy, just as dangerous as anarchy.

Democracy only works if you don't mind having tyranny. We are already in an Oligarchy, and most haven't the sense to recognize it.

We are a nation of LAWS, not men.

Does anybody have an idea exactly what's going on about building and cement paving? Cars, guns and factories are spread worldwide. Seems like every country has some form of cement and building influence. There are flags on record without countries. Who controlled America? How many corporate employees know their CEO?

Oligarchy vs Republic is a false dichotomy, in reality there is no contradiction between the two, in fact the most common form of republic throughout history has been oligarchical republic, perhaps representative to the people in theory, but completely beholden to the private elites in practice.

@JonDeth Sorry bro but you're only half right. America is a Constitutional Republic, it's also supposed to be a Democratic Representative Republic, sorry I left the word constitutional out, but it's supposed to be all of those things.
A republic is not required to be representative, and actually representative doesn't require consent it only requires representation, I could represent you without your consent in a way you find displeasing.
Try looking this stuff up it's not hard k bro?
