Democracy means many types, many meanings. Basically is a free electoral system with an array of political parties to choose from. Not America, Russia or China where the political system either controlled by its leaders, monopolized or controlled by corporations and a 2 party system. We are not a democracy by a long shot when only two parties control both chambers, In many countries, such as European. Italy, for example, had 33+ parties in its parliament. The president has to form a coalition party and does not get to pick his cabinet. He is forced to compromise according to how the vote comes out in the parliament.
