Homework Help: Government

Posted by Susie on Saturday, November 13, 2010 at 12:40pm.

The Farmers called our government a republic instead of a democracy because they wanted to be clear that they were creating a representative constitutional democracy and not a direct democracy.

If the Framers were alive today?
1. What do you think they would say about our move towards direct democracy.
2. Would they be right?
