Declaration of Independence and our constitution do not even mentioned the word "democracy".
- the_why_of_y 11y agoLet's see... neither the Constitution nor the Declaration of Independence explicitly use the word "republic" for the United States as a whole, so you should perhaps reconsider that argument. Constitution, Article 1, Section 2, and Section 3, in their first paragraphs clearly define the legislative branch as a representative democracy.
