All I'm saying is that US is practising democracy: government of the people for the people by the people. The executive, judiciary, and legislators are independent. And so judiciary is supposed to be independent to pass judgement on defaulters without interference, (not even from the white house). Some politicians abuse (democracy) because they are highly placed.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
The US isnt a democracy. It is a constitutional republic.
And the President has the right to pardon who he sees fit, even if it is a family member.
Alright. Thanks a lot for that clarification.
My bad, I use to think US is democracy.
That is what everyone calls it. We do not vote on our issues. We elect representatives who are suppose to represent us and our desires. Of course, as I am sure you are aware, politicians do not operate like that. They only care about themselves.
