  • Summary

  • Democracy is more than elections. Our founding fathers limited government and democracy. Originally, many did not want to let the people vote for president (thus the electoral college) or senators (17th amendment gave the people the right to vote for senators 100 years ago). George Washington gave us the real threats to democracy - foreign countries and political parties. Alex De Tocqueville in Democracy in America” discovered the heart of democracy.
