The goal of the recent sometimes-unruly protests over the election of Donald Trump as the 45th president of the united states of America is unclear. Is it to make President-elect Trump preemptively resign? Is it to ensure that he never takes office—by any type of means necessary? Is it to exercise the protesters’ self-defined right to vandalize the residential property of others?

Of course, we’ve never had a flawed person as president. Not the progressive icon Woodrow Wilson who re-segregated the White House. Not the revered Franklin Roosevelt who herded Japanese citizens into internment camps. Not the two incredibly prominent womanizers expense Clinton as well as JFK. as well as we’ve never had a rock-star- Beyoncé as well as F-word, N-word Jay Z at the White home of hyperbolic-story-telling president like Barack “if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor” Obama. as well as of course, there were no flaws in the democratic candidate who never denounced the democratic national Committee’s unfair treatment of Bernie Sanders or the heads up on concerns in the main debate.
Is the protestors’ beef that the election was not fair? There have been no reports of voter intimidation. Is the protestors’ beef that the election was not democratic? It seems the complaints about Mr. Trump are conflated with the meme ungraciously perpetrated by democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine in an effort to boost Hillary Clinton’s ego: she won more prominent votes. That is a totally irrelevant, ignorant, as well as dissentious statement perhaps meant to foment resentment as well as sick will.
Message to protesters: the candidates were campaigning for every state’s electoral votes (the number of Congress persons as well as both senators), the system set forth in our Constitution. The Electoral college treats the specifies as equal sovereignties as well as keeps big specifies from swallowing up the little states.

It is the fight for electoral votes rather than prominent votes that results in nobody ever having to campaign, for example, in deep dark blue California where the ballot offered the option between two democratic candidates for U.S. Senate. The skewed voting patterns of California’s 18 million registered voters might account for Clinton’s additional votes.
Majority rule seems moral however majority rule is not immediately democratic. As Ben Franklin said, “Democracy is two wolves as well as a lamb choosing what to have for dinner.”
Our country’s founders understood that the “divine right of the majority” was just as poor as rule by “the divine right of kings.” In Federalist No. 10, James Madison argued that direct democracies are “incompatible with personal security or the rights of property.” In a direct democracy, the individual, as well as any type of group of individuals who are in the minority, have no security against the unlimited power of the majority. If the majority votes to take away your land, you lose your land. If the majority votes to outlaw your business, you lose your business.
Madison wrapped up that a representative democracy—which he called a “republic”—is preferable to direct democracy as a type of government. Madison reasoned that agents would not be caught up in the warm of the moment of some passion-infused problem increased by a group. Our agents would refine the views of the public as well as produce legislations designed to uphold the fundamental inalienable human rights consistent with democracy: flexibility of speech, flexibility of religion, the right to a fair trial, security against unwarranted intrusion by the government, as well as equal security under the law.

Publius (either James Madison or Alexander Hamilton) noted in Federalist No. 55 that a republican government assumes that man’s virtuous nature outweighs our political jealousies. If that were not so, “nothing less than the chains of despotism can restrain them from destroying as well as devouring one another.”

Πολλοί ειδήμονες απαιτούν από τον Πρόεδρο-εκλεγμένο Trump να καταδικάσει τις διαμαρτυρίες καθώς και να πει στους διαδηλωτές να σταματήσουν. Γιατί θα ακούσουν το άτομο που περιφρονούν; Πού είναι η φωνή του λόγου της Χίλαρι Κλίντον, όπως και η καλοσύνη;
