“Democracy is a form of government in which all eligible citizens have an equal say in the decisionsthat affect their lives. Democracy allows eligible citizens to participate equally – either directly orthrough elected representatives – in the proposal, development, and creation of laws.”The United States prides itself on being the first nation in modern history to adopt a democraticconstitution. Our government even tries to spread democracy to other countries. But, is the Unites Statesreally a democracy in the full sense of the word?
Write an essay that argues that the United States is not really a democracy. In doing so, emphasize nondemocratic practices, outcomes, and the inconsistencies of American politics.
