Why did the Framers believe that a direct democracy was not the best form of government
for the United States?

А- the Framers did not want to hear directly from the people and did not care what they
wanted

B - the framers liked the way the British government ruled over them and wanted to repli-
cate (copy) that in the U.S. government, so they established a monarchy

C - direct democracies function best in small communities, the U.S. is too large for this form
of government to work

D- a direct democracy would give the government too much power to rule over the people


Sagot :

The framers believed that direct democracy was not the best form of government because C - direct democracies function best in small communities, the U.S. is too large for this form  of government to work.

In a direct democracy, power lay with individuals who needed to vote to:

  • put someone in power
  • enact legislation

Everyone who is eligible to vote gets to vote in a direct democracy. This can be quite complicated when the population of the society is high as it will present some logistical challenges.

It was with this in mind that the framers decided not to use direct democracy.

We can therefore conclude that, the framers did not want to use direct democracy as the American population was simply too large to support direct democracy.
