I asked my oldest grandson what he learned at school last Friday. He replied “not much”. I asked him what type of government we had and he replied “a Democracy”. I asked him if he knew what a founding father was and he replied “no”.
After explaining the concept of our founding fathers, I showed him how they felt about Democracy:
I explained to him that we are a Constitutional Republic and a little later, I told him how he could make some money. Whenever someone tells you that we are a Democracy, ask them how much they would bet on that. When the terms of the bet are complete, ask them to recite the pledge of allegiance to the United States. He looked at me and I told him to recite it. He started out:
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.
I told him to continue:
And to the Republic for which it stands.
I said “to what”?
Collect your money.

Anyone who tries to convince you that we are a democracy is trying to indoctrinate you. Period.
We have allowed traitors to bankrupt (waste) our country. The second assertion is that they will murder us. Or as many are now saying: They Want Us Dead.
