This country never was a democracy..
Lots of people just keep saying it is.
The fact that it has made creditable efforts to be one of the more democratic states is the sole reason why this nation lasted this long. This nation will almost certainly disintegrate, probably in violence, if it were to be widely perceived as fairly undemocratic.
When Lincoln made his Gettysburg address, it was arguable for those who believe the will of the people ultimately justifies government that preserving the union was necessary to allow such a view to expand across the world and take Firmer hold In world still largely a sea of autocracies then in merely one experimental state on a marginal continent.
Now that such forms of government are not uncommon, and other statesBroadly observing similar principles have arguably done better, there is no longer really any moral reason why the union must be preserved. If United States is to be undemocratic, then those who believe in democracy should consider breaking away from it
