We do not live in a democracy.

We live in a representative republic.

That means that we "elect" a few "smart" folks to make the decisions for us "dumb" folk.

They are our representatives.

Just look at presedential elections.
The people do not vote for the president.
We vote and the those votes are counted and then the electoral college looks at our votes and then votes as they please.

Only a few states have laws on the books that require the electoral college votes to agree with the people. Many do not. And, if you look at last election results - popular vote VS. electoral college votes - you will see this clearly.

Wake up people. The times they are a changing and not for the good.
