12. Not that they get it either
but Republic and Republican Principles go back to the American Revolution and the Home Spun movement... it also harkens to what they think the Constitution established and very technically a democracy it was not.

It was a system of private property, private rights. and landed aristocracy.

It is also about state's rights...

By the way most of these guys do not understand that these Republican Values they want to go back to... demand a tax for inheritance, as well as ... small property and corporations with a limited life span.

Now don't try to tell them this though. They won't believe you, you lib'rul you.
