WHY A REPUBLIC?

The American Senate

The importance of the American Senate cannot be overemphasized. It is the most remarkable Senate in the world! It is utterly unique. The entire Nation is centered around their Senate. It is the hardest working arm of their governing body and the most visible. It is the glue that binds the Nation together. Without it in its present form, the Nation could not continue!

In this instance, America is not a Democracy, it is a Republic based on their Constitution. It is a Nation of Laws that spell out their Freedoms and Rights. The Senate is not chosen by population representation. They are allocated by state. Each state is given two senators regardless of their population size. The three largest states, California, Texas and New York get two senators each while the smallest ones, right down to Hawaii and Vermont also get two.

There are 50 states, therefore a total of 100 senators. If it were a democracy, the three largest states would control all the others with complete abandon by right of the democratic process (sometimes called legal mobocracy). However, because of this unusual accommodation of elected senators, the 47 smaller states overbalance the populous ones by sheer numbers.

This was only possible because of the great maturity demonstrated by the largest states. They chose to place NATIONAL UNITY ahead of demanding the democratic process that would have given them total control of the entire country. Which was more important? Of course a unified nation was the outcome! Unified, they grew into the greatest nation on earth! All other countries remain far behind them because they are all dictatorships or socialist democracies that will deteriorate into dictatorships. History has proven that is what happens to all democracies eventually. The majority will always plunder the productive sector, thus bankrupting the nation. Canada is well on its way to accomplishing exactly that.
