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 and democratic
Your whole statement hinges on an untruth - that democracy is a value - a state of being.
It is not.
It is a form of government in which all citizens vote on all issues. Stop. Period. End of definition.
