Using the "Democracy" word

I found these quotes at; http://www.democracyisnotfreedom.com/

We all know our form of government is a Republic. For too long our government has been described as a democracy. Our politicians really like to espouse the wonders of democracy.

Here are what some politicians of the past 100 years said about democracy.

"Democracy is ... the only path to national success and dignity." -George W. Bush

"We must revitalize our democracy." -Bill Clinton

"The world must be made safe for democracy." -Woodrow Wilson

But here is what the founders had to say about democracy.

"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not." -Thomas Jefferson

"Democracy is the most vile form of government... democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention... incompatible with personal security or the rights of property." -James Madison

"Democracy...wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There is never a democracy that did not commit suicide." -John Adams

"A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty nine." -Thomas Jefferson
