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

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.

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

What is the best sex you have ever had (in detail)?

—John Adams

—Thomas Jefferson

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

How did China invent gunpowder but it was the European nations that went out and “conquered the world using firearms”?

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.

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.”

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.

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

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