America was never intended to be a democracy and it never has been; despite the lies you've been told all your life. The U.S. constitution only gave the vote to white, male landowners; even poor white males were not allowed the vote . . . and they ignored blacks, women, Hispanics, "Native Americans" and others they left out. Slowly this rule was changed until almost 200 years later in 1964 when every adult was "given the right to vote", but that's not the point. What are you allowed to vote for?
America is a country born of hypocrisy and nurtured in racism and oppression. How stupendous a hypocrite do you have to be to write a document that declares "All men are created equal" while at that very moment you have two hundred human beings chained in your back yard working as your slaves? America's political system (which was designed by these hypocrites) is no better that a shell game which gives rich people control and the rest of us the shaft.
