Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The House of Representatives was intended to be the most democratic entity of the government, with members elected every two years directly by the people. The Senate was designed to be a more deliberative body, with members originally selected by state legislatures rather than directly by the people. The presidency was seen as an important executive position, but not necessarily the most democratic entity. The Supreme Court and Cabinet are not elected positions at all.
