Our form of government

If a sidewalk interviewer walked up with his microphone and posed this question to you, how would you answer?
"What form of government do we have in the United States of America?"
At this point of history, I would probably jokingly say something along the lines of ~ what it used to  be it isn't anymore, but a dictatorship we are going towards.
But, after giggling, I would answer truthfully.............A republic.  If you would've said a democracy, you would be wrong.  Here's a quick video explaining it.  I'm not too sure how it is actually taught in school's today, but I doubt they get the full unadulterated truth about it.  So, we need to know so we can educate our children on it too.  After all, as parents, that is our job, not just their teachers.  Learning first begins and continues at home.  Don't let your kids teachers be the only one teaching them things, you might not like what ideas they take in.

Here's the video ~ take time to watch and let the kids watch it too!
