How is this allowed, you do not even have to be a politician to be elected as president of the USA

In Australia you have to be a member of parliament and have the full support of your political party

Unfortunately this is a Republic in the since of electors.

Few understand what that is. It's sort of like what you're talking about with your parliament. Yet they are the ones that elect the president. Not the popular vote.

It's definitely not democracy. Yet not all out are republic though it is far closer to a Republic than a parliament.
