It's very simple!!   Does the Constitution of the United States mean anything or not.
If the answer is NO, then what is your so-called democracy worth?

Which chosen amendments are you talking about? The second??...Protecting our borders?? Limitations on the executive branch??...LIFE, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?? Habeus Corpus??...Limiting the Federal government's powers???...Yes Don, Does the Constitution mean anything...or not???
,Interesting you ask..'...then what is YOUR so-called democracy worth? Isn't it 'yours' too??...or do you read from a different ideology??
Do you obey ALL the laws, equally??..or pick and choose the 'convenient' ones???..then start pointing fingers?..(Better throw away your stash!)
So Ake's assertion may be truer than you allude to.
By the way, a 'straight' beats two jacks, and two queens, goose of hearts high!
