Why did the framers of the Constitution decide against a system that directly elected the president by popular vote?

Framers had their blind spots. I won’t mention slavery for the moment, since that’s where everyone goes and since that blot has been amended out of the Constitution (and since many of the Framers, notably Ben Franklin and Alexander Hamilton, were anti-slavery).


One of the big blind spots, which seriously interfered with their thinking on many constitutional matters, is that they believed it would be possible to have national politics without political parties. This played a big role in the creation of the Electoral College system. The strange tale of how the electoral system came about puts some of its weird features into context. Once you get this context, it is at least understandable what the Framers thought they were doing.

PLEASE ANSWER!!!!!!
Ghella [55]

A few days ago I was preforming in a practice right before a play. My friends were around me and my crush was near me. Once we finished our rolls we all climbed down the stairs from a stage. People were pushing us trying to get down and see their family, and I was tripping and jumped to save myself. I still could not catch my balance and hit my nose on the wall. Everyone giggled and the director ran back stage and screamed "What was THAT?!" I was very embarrassed and ended up having a headache. I think the reason this happened is I did not want to sc rew up in front of my family and ended up embarrassing myself further thinking about it. Now my nose is swollen and very unflattering. I had the rest of the night to think about this and my friends came and comforted me.

Dinah is in her twenties and has successfully resolved each life crisis as it has occurred throughout her development. according
Genrish500 [490]
According to Erik Erikson, Dina now must resolve the crisis of intimacy versus isolation.
Dinah is now old enough to think about her future and whether she wants to find a partner to spend the rest of her life with or not. She needs to decide if she will be isolated from long-term romantic pursuits or if she will start looking for an appropriate partner to share her life with, which can be a daunting task.

The spreading of information to convince others of an idea
NNADVOKAT [17]
Are you looking for an appropriate word to name this? 
I think that a good name is "propaganda", especially when the information is of political relevance. 

In the past (and to some extend present) some totalitarian or non-democratic states used propaganda to shape public opinion.

Brian is four years old. He loves to watch cartoons, especially those about superheroes. His dad was also a big fan of watching
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Play stage

Explanation:

George Mead was a sociologist and a psychologist who develop a theory on how the mind and psyche develop by the interaction with other people.

Mead believed that the self develops through a three-stage role-taking process. These three stages are:

  1. preparatory stage
  2. play stage,
  3. game stage.

In the preparatory stage (usually from the moment we are born until we are 2 years old) children <u>mimic</u> what they see happening around them.

In the play stage (age 2-6), children play but they don't adhere to the rules, they make their own rules for the different games they play, this means they create rules as they play. One other characteristic of this stage is that they play representing specific people (by example, by playing to be the mom they are actually representing their mom)

In the game stage (from 7 years), children start adhering to the rules. They can also play role games but the role they play is more general (if they play as if they were a mom, they are not representing their actual mom but the concept of "being a mom" they should have by now).

In this example, Brian is <u>4 years old and likes to put on his cape when he's watching Superman and pretend to be saving the world.</u> First of all, we notice that, <em>because of his age, he should be in the play stage</em>.

But also, by pretending to be saving the world just as Superman would do we can see that<u> the role playing he is representing refers to ONE individual in particular (in this case Superman). </u>Thus he is in the play stage.
