## Republic, not Democracy.
We specifically wanted to make it clear that we are a Republic and not a Democracy in the body of the document because one of the biggest problems liberty defenders have had to contend with in the American constitution is that it is never explicitly stated that the US Constitution is explicitly **not** a Democracy. It has even become common for US politicians to call the USA a Democracy or to speak highly of Democracy.
