US is not a true democracy. It's a Republic, a Democratic Republic if that makes you feel any better. Look at some of the ancient Greek city-states, those were democracies. If you have not noticed yet, we elect representatives in this country to represent us. We do not have the final authority in deciding most things. The country is too large to be able to run a real Democracy
