american democracy 

Having the illusion of a democratic choice between two candidates who are in reality working for the same party.

Accompanied by much media attention to dazzle and distract halfwits from the reality of their situation.

Today's American Democracy would make George Washington cry and Hitler blush with envy.

American democracy 

A form of democracy which is only legitimate when it supports a specific individual or groups agenda, otherwise its illegitimate and the result of fraud. And proof of the system subsequent failure.

Oh, of course it’s only a fair outcome if I agree with it, American democracy at its finest.

American democratic socialism 

What the rest of the world calls social democracy. Much like American football, we’ve created our own definition.

Person 2: Bernie advocates American democratic socialism. He doesn’t want any of that.
