ld generally dictate national policy 89 james madison equated a coalition of a majority of the whole society with justice and the general good in the federalist papers and alexander hamilton described representative democracy as happy regular and durable 90 89 alexander hamilton wrote that a representative democracy where the right of election is well secured and regulated the exercise of the legislative executive and judiciary authorities is vested in select persons chosen really and not nominally by the people will in my opinion be most likely to be happy regular and durable 91 89 rise of democracy edit over time the pejorative connotations of democracy faded by the 1830s democracy was seen as an unmitigated positive and the term democratic was assumed by the democratic party and the term democrat was adopted by its members 92 a common term for the party in the 19th century was the democracy 93 in debates on reconstruction radical republicans such as senator charles sumner argued that the republican guarantee clause in article iv supported the introduction by force of law of democratic suffrage in the defeated south 94 after 1800 the limitations on democracy were systematically removed property qualifications for state voters were largely eliminated in the 1820s 95 the initiative referendum recall and other devices of direct democracy became widely accepted at the state and local level in the 1910s and senators were made directly electable by the people in 1913 the last restrictions on black voting were made illegal in 1965 president abraham lincoln used constitutional republic and democracy synonymously casting the american experiment as government of the people by the people and for the people 96 20th century slogan a republic not a democracy edit the idea that america is a republic not a democracy has been a recurring theme in since the early 20th century it declared that not only is majoritarian pure democracy a form of tyranny unjust and unstable but that democracy in general is a distinct form of government from republicanism and that the united states has been and should remain the second and not the first critics of the socially oriented new deal programs proposed by franklin delano roosevelt to fix the great depression threatened republican ideals of property rights free enterprise and individual freedoms historian matthew dallek argues at this time the phrase a republic not a democracy was used by the right to argue that wealthy white men should continue to rule 97 draper notes conservative republican presidents in the 21st century george w bush donald trump have not been reluctant to invoke the word democracy in addresses and policies but as of 2022 in at least one state arizona draper traveled throughout he found anti democracy and anti democracy sentiment repeatedly voiced and distinct from anything he had encountered in over two decades of covering conservative politics 98 in a 2020 paper america is a republic not a democracy bernard dobski of the heritage foundation characterized attacks by liberals on the electoral college for its undemocratic features giving much more electoral weight to small states and usually giving all the electoral votes to whichever candidate won the most popular votes the most visible sign of this democratic antipathy to our republican institutions and compares the campaign to elect the president using the popular vote to calls for direct democracy through national referendums 99 however george thomas notes that interest in the republic not a democracy concept among republicans comes at a time when the republican presidential candidate has prevailed in the electoral college in three out of seven elections since 1988 but won the popular vote only once in 2004 and that given current trends minority rule in the united states could become routine 96 thomas also notes that interest in the idea comes at a time when donald trump s 2020 presidential campaign was the first in american history to make no effort to win the popular vote appealing only to the people who will deliver him an electoral college win 96 and astra taylor notes that in general republican electoral strategies are showing less interest and ability in winning majorities 100 in april 2024 the washington state republican party passed a resolution asking people to use the word republic instead of democracy and endorsed repeal of the seventeenth amendment to the united states constitution which would mean ending direct election of u s senators 101 see also edit corruption in
