> Is the US not a democracy because the executive branch and candidates for presidency are explicity obligated to believe and follow the constitution? Did you just equate "following the US constitution" to "following Sharia law"? |

edit: Wanted to leave it at that, but I should really clarify. I'm equating a group choosing the US constitution as their founding document with a group choosing Sharia law for the same purpose. If a person says they believe in democracy but doesn't believe in other people's right to make what looks like obviously bad decisions, they don't really believe in democracy.
