The correct answer to this open question is the following.
You do not include any reference to what argument, text, or paper written by James Madison, because he wrote many as part of the authors of the Federalists papers.
However, probably you are referring to "Federalist N.-10." If this is the case, then the correct answer is the following.
Madison used the comparison to bolster his argument in that he compares two forms of government: Republic and Pure Democracy. In that comparison, James Madison says that the wrongdoings and failures of Pure Democracy represent the benefits of a Republic. So he tries to promote the idea of a Republic as the new form of government for the new nation.
B. Weighted GPA
You see the unweighted is considered the college GPA and removes all AP, IB, or Honors clasess and puts all college applicants on the same level, cumulative GPA is wrong and doesn't make any sense with relation to the question, and the semester GPA wouldn't technically include the extra 10 points that these classes give.
I think it would have to be 2 months, reason being I have depression and they told me to be classified as major, I'd have to have the side effects for at least 2 Months. Hope this Helps.
