I wish more people understood that we are not a democracy--we are a republic-and because of this we are letting our represenativs destroy our republic and what it means to we the people.It is a shame that iI may live to see the day that goverment rules us all.How is it that the balance of power allowes the presenadent to take totle control of all the people and take away any and all chances to protect us frome them(goverment ) They can take away our 2nd adment right at will and people dont even know or even understand what this realy means-We are on our way to totle goverment control and we will have no way to stop them.God help us all.
