It is indeed, at least according to The Economist's democracy index. I think the countries mentioned were examples. Also, the options need to be changed a little, all Scandinavian countries and Spain and UK are both constitutional monarchies and representative democracies at the same time.

1) Yeah, but apart from numbers, it's a horrible place to live in
2) I don't know if there are any non-absolutist monarchies where the monarch has any power other than being there
3) The US it has many, many flaws in its democracy, principally having two important parties that are very similar
