What does the excerpt suggest about Federalists number 55
ruslelena [56]

The correct answer is: D. They believed that representatives were better able to vote on national issues than ordinary citizens were.

Explanation

The excerpt contrasts ancient democracies, that were characterized by tyranny and run by mobs, to the idea of a large government representation so as to demostrate that whenevever a group of people is assembled, no matter who is in it, they tend to make the wrong decisions, that is, decisions led by passion instead of reason as stated in the excerpt:

"<em>passion never fails to wrest the sceptre from reason".</em>

Moreover, Federalists wanted a strong national government, instead of granting the power to the states, and believed that only one person could represent 30.000 people.
