well its also a democracy, so the majority decides, and last I checked the majority was christian so...

 

 

actualy america is a republic not a democracy

...?

 

 

 

in a democracy we vote straight for the president. in are(?) country we vote then the electora;l votes are the ones that actually count.

also chect the pledge of allegiance

" i pledge allegiance to the flag of the united  states of america. for in this republic for which it stands...."

Well it's a Republic in the same way that Canada is a Dominion, but arent they still democracys in the sense that the people decide the leader?

 

 

 

well, its basically the same, but like i said in a democracy you vote directly for the president, and you vote actually goes torward it. but in a republic the  electoral college looks at your vote then decides to vote depending what they thought of those votes.

like how in 2004 bush lost the votes,but got more electoral votes therefore he won.
