Answer:

<h2>d. the addition of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.</h2>

Explanation:

The quoted section in the question comes from a document written by James Madison, titled, <em>Memorial and Remonstrance against Religious Assessments. </em>Madison presented the document to the Virginia Assembly in 1785 as an argument for full religious freedom.  It was an argument that found its way also into the Bill of Rights of the US Constitution, specifically in the First Amendment.  

The First Amendment states:  

  • <em>Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof</em><em>; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.</em>

ASHA 777 [7]

In a democracy, it is essential that elections are regular and fair (option "A" is the correct answer). For electoral and representative systems, a democracy represents the citizens' essential right to choose their leaders in free, fair, and regular elections. The condition of "regular" implies holding elections periodically on a set schedule known to the electorate; while the concept "fair" determines that electoral laws have to offer equal conditions and opportunities for all political parties, candidates and citizens necessary to carry out the suffrage process without any obstacles that prevent the right to vote.
