> It's a republic not a democracy.
That's like saying that it's an animated film, not a comedy. The republic is a form of government and democracy is a way to involve the people in deciding who governs them. Some republics are democracies, some democracies are republics.

When the minority rules, like in a plutocracy, you've got a bigger problem.
