VID (5:02) REPUBLIC Vs. DEMOCRACY: WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? What Is A Republic? Monday, November 4, 2024 Is America’s government a Democracy or a Republic? One America’s Zach Petersen looks at the difference, and why it matters. https://www.oann.com/video/oan-contribution/what-is-a-republic/ (Compressed to fit in post.)
In a republic, an official set of fundamental laws, like the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights, prohibits the government from limiting or taking away certain inalienable rights of the people—even if that government was freely chosen by a majority of the people.
