Yes, the United States is a republic with a presidential democracy. As a republic, the U.S. system of government is characterized by elected representatives and an elected leader (the president) rather than a monarch. The principles of republicanism emphasize the rule of law, individual rights, and a system of checks and balances among branches of government.

In a presidential democracy, the president serves as both the head of state and the head of government, and is elected independently of the legislative branch. The U.S. Constitution establishes this framework, dividing government powers among the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, thus creating a system of checks and balances to prevent any one branch from gaining too much power.
