I say America is some sort of fake-democracy that looks like some twisted totalitaristic Monarchy coverd up by some silly, mind-controling mediatic power that tells us that we are in control, that the people are free and all that kind of crap.
They say you can vote for your leader when actually, what we all don't know, is that they already know who will be leader, o and if someone happen to get the lead when they don't expect him to win, they snipe him down in a parade -_-

In some sense you're right, BWS-1, though I'm not going to venture that it's all COMPLETELY predetermined. But, since we're so set within our two party system then, yes, our choices actually are EXTREMELY limited, and, since the party elects their canidates, they're going to elect a canidate that will do what they want, giving us a situation similar to a choice for whatever is the lesser evil.
Sucks, eh?

(Represent Reppublic). Therefore we are a Republic, not a Democracy, though there are many people out there that call us a Representational Democracy, but that's just cause they want to keep the word Democracy in there.

True, though all the signs point to the US's coming downfall. It's happened to all the powerful societies. They usually get a hundred years in the spotlight and then they return to obsurity and impotence.
