The Trail of Tears is a very good example of Democracy. Democracy is the ability of the Majority to take away the rights of the Minority (Thomas Jefferson, and others).
The Majority (Americans) wanted the lands, gold, and other resources of the Minority (Native Americans) so they voted in a President (Andrew Jackson) who would give it to them.
If the United States was a Republic (like it is supposed to be) then Article 6 of the US Constitution (which makes Treaties part of the constitution; the Supreme Law of the Land (quoting Article 6)) - then the previous Treaties with those tribes would have prevented them from taking the lands; by forcing the USA to the terms of those treaties.
