Technically they're right. We are not a democracy, we are a republic.
Correct.
Their reasons for doing this may be wrong...
What? I RTA and they don't say anything about democracy having the word democrat in it. It is a valid concern that students in public school systems should be correctly taught what type of government we are (meant to) have. Especially these days when so many are being taught that the government takes care of everything and is the ultimate authority in everyone's lives.
