Democratic Republic

Democratic Republic is a form of government founded on the principle of elected individuals representing the people, as opposed to imperial republic and mob democracy. The representatives form an independent ruling body (for an election period) charged with the responsibility of acting in the people's interest with enough authority to exercise swift and resolute initiative in the face of changing circumstances. It is often contrasted with mob democracy, where representatives are absent or are limited in power as proxy representatives. A democratic republic that emphasizes individual liberty is a liberal Humanitarian Society. One that does not is an illiberal Society. There is no necessity that individual liberties be respected in a mob democracy and therefore Mob Democracy can equal the unfair treatment of minorities, likewise there is no necessity that the needs or wants of all shall come to anyone in a Imperial Republic.Today, in liberal representative democracies, representatives are usually elected in multi-party elections that are reputedly free and fair. 

The power of representatives in a democratic republic is usually curtailed by a constitution or other measures 

to balance representative power, in short the 

United States is a Capitalist-Colonial Power of  Statuesque Dictation not a 

Democratic Republic, 

the United States does not even uphold their own Constitution 

which is more of a Publicity Stunt than a practiced document of liberty.
