    As the original creator of the video, I’d like to say to all the haters
    that this video was originally created to fulfill a small assignment for a
    class. It’s intended audience is for elementary age students and is
    generally focused on my thoughts about democracy. Take it for what it’s
    worth to you.

    You should be put into jail for trying to instill lies into children’s
    minds. What you’re doing is the definition of Brain-washing. This country
    is not A Democracy, the word Democracy isn’t even mentioned in The Bill of
    Rights, The Constitution, or The Declaration of Independence.

    It’s time for America to evolve from a constitutional republic to a real
    democracy. Impeach Obama!

    Democracy nowadays looks like an old and overused WHORE wearing a wedding
    dress, but only because client has ordered role playing games and she is
    being protected by the biggest pimp of our time – the west (USA, UK)

    I flagged this as misleading. It’s dangerous that this the first thing that
    comes up when you search the term ‘democracy’. Talk about manipulation of
    minds.

    A Republic following the rules set forth in our Constitution are what
    respects every individuals opinion. A Democracy means the majority can
    diminish the rights of a minority.

    I thought that democracy was solely about relinquishing your right to
    choose, abandoning it to an elite group of professional politicians,
    usually lawyers or bankers, claiming to represent the people. But hey,
    that’s only me.

    @Dan Zimmerman, do you always call those who are right “haters” ? I think
    you need to check your definition of Democracy.

    There is no democracy for the UK while we are still in the corrupt EU.
    Reading Belfast Telegraph today 15/11/14 —Charlie Flanagan the republics
    foreign affairs minister urges the UK to stay in EU. He says IF NOT it will
    pull countries apart (speaking mainly about north and south Ire) He says
    the Irish are dismayed at the prospect of UK going it alone. I would like
    to inform him (if anybody could get a message to him) that the UK never
    intended to go it alone–they thought (silly them) that they were joining a
    free trade club (which has turned out to be lies) and they have been fed
    lies ever since. He says that the UK’s continued membership of the EU is
    hugely important to us (republic) there is to much at stake to remain on
    the sidelines (more lies). What I suspect he means is–we want you to stay
    in in case we need another bail out. People like Charlie Flanagan make me
    hope that we get out of this corrupt union asap. Please for the sake of
    democracy and freedom for future generations vote UKIP

    Democracy is also known as a pointless waste of time. The only real way to
    exist is with absolute authority. All this modern yank nonsense about
    freedom and tolerance needs to go right where it belongs – in the BIN. No
    one deserves any “freedom”, everyone is a slave to the state – everyone
    deserves and needs to be crushed and steam-rolled into submission and
    obedience. And that is exactly what we will provide them.

    Democracy can be as it is described ” You voice, your choice, it’s up to
    you”, but if you’re the minority, your ideal becomes the opposite to
    complain the majority. However, I think that’s correct, because our life
    usually has ups/downs as well as your vote can be one of the directions the
    world wants to go, earlier or later. Democracy may take time to go to the
    ideal, much more than any dictatorship or any other idealistic regime. But
    the important think is that the time will come likewise the best time of
    life, and without democracy you don’t have it as normal citizen and just
    follow the policy of top leaders that they can do things you don’t know,
    never to be disclosed /discovered, as it’s going to their tombs forever and
    could be a sad part of the history we know. Looks childish what I mentioned
    as above, but many people in the world are not really knowing what’s
    democracy, unfortunately. Many people think those changes never happen in
    lifetime because of democratic votes, and well, I had 3 times the big world
    changes and I want to say, democracy exists to anybody if he/she
    understands what it really means.

    People, individuals, being heard? By whom? By politicians, who are the ones
    who are the ones who really have the power?

    Once they are in office they don’t need to listen to anyone. And everyone
    can impossibly get their voices heard by anyone. You are diminished to
    meaningless statistics that missrepresents reality to the advantage of this
    privileged caste of politicians.

Americans Are Just Beginning To Unleash Their Superpower!

March 2, 2025 By Ted Leave a Comment

American Consumer Spending Makes Up 70% of the GDP. This is an American Superpower that has been largely untapped until now. Consumer boycotts are springing up all over the country, targeting companies, corporations, and organizations whose values are opposed to the wishes and votes of the American Voter. Trump did not get a mandate, and […]

The Real Destroyer of Democracy is the Republican Party and here’s how to STOP them. I love this country and Democracy but what Trump and Doge are doing is Anti-Democratic. They don’t want to help Americans – they want to steal from Americans. After all of their rummaging and pillaging of the Government payment system, […]

Democracy Needs Your Help

I use to believe that democracy needed two parties since the exchange of ideas made our Democracy stronger. The Republican party is no longer the party of Lincoln. It’s a cult whose fealty is to Trump, a dangerous and some say, sociopathic narcissist, who seems bent on concentrating all power in himself,  stealing money through […]

Trump’s Supreme Court Gets It Wrong – Many Americans Will Die!

The Conservative Trump Supreme court gets it wrong and many Americans will die. The conservative Trump court voted against New York’s 10 and 25 person capacity limits. None of the Justices has a background in epidemiology or pandemic responses yet they chose to overrule the health experts recommendations to the states. They also chose to override […]
