O.T. Interesting History Lesson

Professor Olson adds, "In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was
mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country.
Gore's territory encompassed those citizens living in government-owned
tenements and living off government welfare..."Olson believes the U.S. is
now somewhere between the "apathy" and the "complacency" phase of Professor
Tyler's definition of democracy; with some 40 percent of the nation's
population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.
so who lives in a democracy?
True democracies are always short-lived and violence proned.
Democracies are a system of men not laws.
And a Republic is a system of laws not men.
That may be the reason our enlightened forefathers created a 'Republic'?
Ya think?
