America is a federal republic and has a representative government. It's set apart from a monarchy where a single person dictates the law of the land but it is also set apart from a direct democracy where individuals are an active part of the governing process. We can feel a part of the process by voting, we can take a part in local and state affairs. But an individual's only real input in the federal government is made through representatives. That's the way it is structured.
