Do you think E. Germany was very democratic or very republican?
Don't get hung up on labels.
The common law is the common law.. for the most part it does not exist in the United States, since the common law requires (a) (private) property and (b) gold in order to operate, neither of which exist anymore in the U.S., no matter what labels you hang on your case law, etc.

Oh now. I have private property, lots of it. Although I don't have any gold, as I see no value or use for it, I bet I could go buy some with those "fake" FRN, backed by Palani's 8 trillion dollar debt.
Kidding aside, I agree and disagree with you. I agree, the common law for the most part does not exist because it has been codified. It makes the Common law of which people on this web site seem to think is the icing on the cake just about as helpfull in a court of law as would the peace of cake. You would be better off to offer the judge in the case the cake.
So, my point is, it is useless in this country for the most part. So my question is-What is the hang up on it? Do any of you Common law supporters really think you will ever win with that bunk? I mean, sit back, and really really think about it. And, if you are delusional enough to believe you stand a snowballs chance in hell, you better find a "judge" at the local ward who has the same belief's as you, because you won't find one in the Judicial system of the US of A.
