USA is a constitutional republic, not a democracy. All of your lawmakers represent the government as their first duty. We the sheeple are human capital for their tyrannical system.
For instance if 75% of "We the People" voted for Ron Paul.. the electorial college can still vote in McCain. Sure they are "supposed" to be voting the same way as their districts.. but there is no requirement. Remember the 2000 election.. Bush didn't win the popular vote.. but he became president anyway due to the electoral vote.
Bottom line is it is stacked.
