The American Form Of Government

What is America's true form of government? Is the United States a Democracy or a Republic, what is the difference and why does it matter? This video very clearly highlights the path the United States is on and the inevitable outcome if we do not restore our Constitutional Republic.

✦ JAMES MADISON (fourth President, co-author of the Federalist Papers and the “father” of the Constitution) – “Democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security, or the rights of property; and have, in general; been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths.”
✦ JOHN ADAMS (American political philosopher, first vice President and second President) – “Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide.”
✦ BENJAMIN RUSH (signer of the Declaration) – “A simple democracy… is one of the greatest of evils.”
✦ FISHER AMES (American political thinker and leader of the federalists [he entered Harvard at twelve and graduated by sixteen], author of the House language for the First Amendment) – “A democracy is a volcano which conceals the fiery materials of its own destruction. These will provide an eruption and carry desolation in their way.” / “The known propensity of a democracy is to licentiousness [excessive license] which the ambitious call, and the ignorant believe to be liberty.”
✦ GOVERNOR MORRIS (signer and penman of the Constitution) – “We have seen the tumult of democracy terminate… as [it has] everywhere terminated, in despotism…. Democracy! Savage and wild. Thou who wouldst bring down the virtuous and wise to thy level of folly and guilt.”
✦ JOHN QUINCY ADAMS (sixth President, son of John Adams [see above]) – “The experience of all former ages had shown that of all human governments, democracy was the most unstable, fluctuating and short-lived.”
✦ NOAH WEBSTER (American educator and journalist as well as publishing the first dictionary) – “In democracy… there are commonly tumults and disorders…. therefore, a pure democracy is generally a very bad government. It is often the most tyrannical government on earth.”
✦ JOHN WITHERSPOON (signer of the Declaration of Independence) – “Pure democracy cannot subsist long nor be carried far into the departments of state – it is very subject to caprice and the madness of popular rage.”
✦ ZEPHANIAH SWIFT (author of America’s first legal text) – “It may generally be remarked that the more a government [or state] resembles a pure democracy the more they abound with disorder and confusion.”

Take note that as well Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution reads:

➤ "The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government…"
