He told you in plain English. Wake up, people.
It is a republic, that over the couple centuries or so, has too many elements of a direct democracy via changes in practice and the constitution. Now we have the worst of both systems.
If you knew the broke and sorry state of the Catholic Church, you wouldn't believe that they had such influence on secular affairs.
