America was not founded as a democracy but as a constitutional republic.
Democracy means the majority can do whatever they want. This means rule by the whim of the largest mob.
Constitutional republics have representatives (ultimately democratically chosen) with limited power.

There has to be an effective feedback loop to the people or we live in rule of the bureau, not rule of the people (demos)
