Democracy Vs. Kings

Democracy guarantees rights to the states and the people.  It is in the Bill of Rights.  Kings can be despots, and a dictator is just like a kingship without a royal line.  Egypt had kings, Israel had them, Babylon had them, Rome had emperors,  Charlemange was the one in control of the "holy Roman Empire", England had kings and queens.  Hitler, Mousalini and Stalin were despots, and Stalin was revered in Russia (USSR) until Glastnos and Peristroikia.  America was unique in 1776.  It was the first republic, first under the articles of confederation, and in 1881, under the Constitution, including the Bill of Rights, guaranteeing, of many things, free speech, free press and freedom of religion.  There is also a separation of powers in the USA - Legislative, Executive (The President), and Judicial, and no president is above the law in this country.  The Constitution was designed to both protect this nation from the tyrany of the minority and the tyrany of the majority.
