I cant argue that we are a Republic, but I think its necessary to acknowledge that we still run about calling ourselves a Democracy. Deliver the Freedom of Democracy, etc., etc. Its a moot point.
Like I said in my post, im not calling anyone a theif. I just think its sketch. One of the most heated results in our history. Its interesting that the rift hasnt been closed, not even a little. The nation is still solidly divided, damn near 50/50. I think this is problematic. No matter who wins there will be a myriad of "I told you so's" along with even more backlash in 2008.
