This is retarded. The US is a federal republic which is a type of representative democracy. 

Not necessarily. There are, arguably, several nations with a federal system that do not have representative democracy, at least not in any meaningful way, with elections that are neither free nor fair and leadership that is often authoritarian.

That could be said of representative democracy or democracy in general.
