About this listen

The current discussion among liberals in America is that democracy is at stake if Donald J. Trump Sr. wins the American presidency in 2024. But the almost unexamined question is whether America was ever a democracy. This book examines the common definition of the word "democracy" and argues that it is a meaningless word, and does not describe the political reality in America.
