We have 5 questions: Select two (2) of the questions to write about not all of them. 250-word minimum PER question
Clearly label your essays (Question 1, Question 2, and so on) so that I can discern which question you are answering.
NOTE: DO NOT enter your essay answers in the ADD COMMENTS field. Doing so destroys all formatting and reduces your essays to a single long extremely difficult-to-read text string.
QUESTIONS
1. Does it matter that the modern American public is not all that politically knowledgeable or sophisticated? Why or why not? Directly reference the assigned readings when making your argument.
2. Explain Madison’s argument in Federalist #10. What was Madison’s primary concern? What did Madison see as the primary threat to democracy? How did Madison propose to keep this threat in check?
3. Trace the development of federalism in the United States. Refer to dates, court cases, or national legislation (laws) as necessary.
4. Do Americans mythologize (or even worship) our nation’s founding, its founders, and the system they developed? Why or why not? Use examples to support your argument. If “yes,” is this approach a net positive or a net negative?
5. Discuss three (3) critical problems with the Articles of Confederation that were subsequently corrected by the U.S. Constitution. How did the Constitution correct these problems?
