Permalink A Republic, If You Can Keep It |
Subject: The American Form of Government
This video discusses the differences between Dictatorship, Oligarchy,
Democracy, Republic and Anarchy, making the important point that
a Republic is denoted by an adherence to the "Rule of Law",
as opposed to a Democracy which is simply the unrestricted "Rule
of the Majority". Pass this link along to anyone you think needs
a little history lesson.
