Going by logic, there is a democrat and a republican party.

Bush leads the republican party.

So it's republican, since Bush got elected.

Maybe that's a stupid answer, but why should I care. Razz Go Canada!

It's a republic because in a true democracy everyone would vote on everything, which we don't do. Instead we elect others to do our voting for us, to represent us. (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.

The definition of a republic is, according to my world geography teacher, a country or nation that votes for its own leaders. So, any republic is a democracy; the party of our president has little to do with that.

Itsa Republic cause Rome discovered it when they made their senate...Before that the people in every town voted on EVERYTHING so about once a day the bell in the center square would bong and everyone would gather to vote on the business at hand.

I think the answer would be somewhere along the lines of "democratic republic"

Not true. A true Democracy HAS no elected leaders. Everyone votes on everything that the country does or does not do. They don't NEED leaders because the will of the majority decides everything.
