Sam Bushman breaks down why the United States was never designed to be a democracy, and why the Founding Fathers deliberately rejected pure democracy in favor of a constitutional republic. Sparked by a conversation at the Braver Angels conference, this episode lays out 25 historical, constitutional, and philosophical reasons the republic vs. democracy distinction matters: from the Electoral College and the Senate's original design to supermajority requirements, checks and balances, and the God-given rights the Constitution was built to protect. If you've ever wondered why the founders rejected majority rule, this is the deep dive you need.
