America was never really a Democracy and if anything we are the closest now than ever. When this country was founded only white land owners could vote. That is not a democracy.
Eventually it was all white men could vote.. Then Women were allowed to vote. Now all citizens have the right to vote but corporations and the wealthy still carry more lobbying weight than the average citizen.
At this point we are the closest to a democracy as the country has even been but it's still not quite there yet.
