Why is the word "democracy" not in the preamble of the US Constitution?

—Alexis de Tocqueville

Why? Try these on for size:

Meanwhile, when the Democratic Party formed in 1828, it was with a Tory outlook keen on robbing others of their rights:

Cosmetics Industry Icon Leonard A. Lauder, Chairman Emeritus, The Estée Lauder Companies, Passes Away - The Estée Lauder Companies Inc.

To blacks: “You can’t drink from that water fountain… eat in this cafeteria… ride this bus… go to this school. We voted fair and square and your side lost.

To Indians: “Pack up what belongings you can carry and start walking to Oklahoma. Your fertile lands are ours now. We voted fair and square and your side lost.”

In other words, our Founding Fathers and other Whig intellects of that time well understood that democratic methods are the surefire means to do serious damage to the rights guaranteed under republican self-government.

If Trump were to lose in 2024, would that be the end of his grip on the Republican Party?

—Thomas Jefferson

When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.

—John Adams

How is it, in the USA, a country with 334 million people, the choice of President comes down to two aged men, one of whom is a liar as well as a criminal, one who appears to be on his way to dementia. Surely a democratic country can put up better?

I do not say that democracy has been more pernicious on the whole, and in the long run, than monarchy or aristocracy. Democracy has never been and never can be so durable as aristocracy or monarchy; but while it lasts, it is more bloody than either.

Another tendency, which is extremely natural to democratic nations and extremely dangerous, is that which leads them to despise and undervalue the rights of private persons.

Majority-rules democracy is the way that majorities run roughshod over minorities, destroying rights and all ideas of equality under the law. No fair-minded person wants anything to do with democracy.

Don't you think Democrats are so full of it stool softener and an enema couldn't help them?

The republican is the only form of government which is not eternally at open or secret war with the rights of mankind.

—Benjamin Franklin

To slaves: “You can forget your notions of freedom. We voted fair and square and your side lost.”

Can the right person make a narc want to change their ways? Is love that powerful? Has anyone seen this or experience it?

[with republicanism being the rights-protecting form of governance afforded us by our Constitution]
