Question 4 is meant to imply that China isn’t democratic because the President is selected by the National People’s Congress and not by direct popular vote (even though the US President is elected by the electoral college, not the popular vote).

“USA”’s leader. As an American from an entire different country and hemisphere, I’d love it if people didn’t keep spreading the neo-colonial mindset that enables them to pretend they’re the entire continent.

That’s the kind of thing that enables them to say things like “Latin America is the USA’s backyard”, or, more recently “not the backyard, but the front yard”, like it’s any better.
