The United States of America is NOT a democracy. I know that everyone believe it is, but it in reality it is not. This country has never been a democracy. Our country is a republic. Nowhere in the Pledge of Allegiance does the word democracy exist. Nor does it exist anywhere in both The Constitution of the United States of America or the Declaration of Independence. Further, it doesn’t appear in any of the constitutions of all the fifty states.
Here is the whole Pledge of Allegiance:
"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
I cannot speak eloquently enough to make this all too important point. So I found an excellent video to make it for me. I know it’s a little bit long, but it is worth every second.
