Not sure really, but the only thing I've read about that makes sense is a libertarian democracy. Direct democracy has often been called a "Tyranny of the majority." As an American, I'm not exactly what you might call a patriot," but I consider myself more "patriotic" than the blind chauvinists you often see here. I dislike the traditional* left's hands in America's pockets and the traditional* right's desire to control America's social life. I emphasize traditional because the "traditional political spectrum" is obsolete, but it's just easier to say that. I also dislike the warping of the Constitution for one party's agenda. For example the PATRIOT Act, or the Assault Weapons Ban.
