Actually, it is.

I mean think about it. Extremely is a very strong word, you can't use it lightly. An extremely undemocratic country has to be a dictatorship. You can't call America a dictatorship and call Syria a dictatorship too. You can't have those two on the same playing field.

Well it is quite undemocratic.Two party system,super delegates,electoral college and the primaries

The word you are looking for is corruption, not democracy or lack thereof.

If it was quite undemocratic, not only would these things exist, but also it would also be illegal to protest against them.

The Electoral college was made to stop tyranny of the masses, aka people choosing a bad ruler

And the primaries are actually pretty good

The American two party system allows both parties to adopt and shape their policies as and when they like. Therefore any decent policy taken on by a third party can be usurped by one of the big two – and that is acceptable in US politics. Therefore by adopting a third party’s policies, the ‘big two’ can move forward with policies that might be part of a third party’s strategy for success – and steal its clothes. Plus the media – a vital part of US politics – will only be interested in the Republicans and Democrats thus starving any other party of the oxygen of publicity. Likewise those who donate money will only be interested in likely winners and that will only come from the Democrats or the Republicans

There is a extremely overwhelming number of parties in the United States and belive it or not the republican party didn't become big untill after the civil war. Abraham Lincoln was a 'Radical Republican' which was its own party that was more , Radical, compared to today's republicans. There also used to be the federalists, etc.

The current 2 parties are dominating because they are the top parties in which to know about the 3Rd parties get scrambled in the background because many people don't know about them.

What defines a national party in the US? In India you need to have percentage of seats in the lower house (lok sabha) and a majority in a state legislature and members in some State legislature

Idk, but I am assuming you become "national" when a party has large amount of influence over the population, or dominating the minds

So what I am getting from this is that we will be signing a completely defensive treaty and we cant really raid anything after it is signed?

For that reason we should probably reject the treaty.

I have finished speaking with Caelapes. According to him or her you were involved in the password leak. Apparently you were the source. As far as I can tell you haven't broken any TMC laws but your recent involvement with The Red Fleet, a well-known enemy of The Mystical Council, does not look good. I eagerly await the day that your Lunar Council seat is up for reelection....

I don't know. That seems a little unfair to me. It is possible if the legislature passes something to that effect. But I think we would be better off looking for a loophole.

This is known as an Ex Post Facto. Many countries' constitutions prohibit this and so we probably ought to discuss whether we want Ex Post Facto law to be constitutional or not first. (see < https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ex_post_facto_law >)
