American founding fathers were concerned with the limits of democracy. Their concerns are similar to those of political philosophers such as John Stuart Mill (<em>On Liberty</em>) and Alexis de Tocqueville (<em>Democracy in America</em>). In particular, they were concerned that an excess of democracy would lead to a “tyranny of the majority.”
The tyranny of the majority refers to a situation in democratic rule where a self-interested majority can put their interests above those of the minority. It is an inherent weakness of majority rule and can lead to the oppression of minorities.
Alexander Hamilton wrote to Thomas Jefferson about this worry after The Constitutional Convention in 1787, and the constitution that was drafted reflects these concerns. The Electoral College is partly a safety mechanism to prevent the democratic victory of a tyrannical despot. Other mechanisms introduced were the Bill of Rights and the division of power, which prevents the centralization of all power in one individual, even a democratically elected one.
The answer is: C. there is a triad of great gods known only to those who attain enlightenment
Buddhism is a polytheism religion. The followers of Buddhism believed that there are more than one Gods in this universe that serves their own function to the world.
This triad of great gods could only be known if humans achieve enlightenment where they've completely disregard their needs for materialistic things in life. Buddha taught that even though this extremely difficult, it is possible for anyone to achieve enlightenment within one lifetime.
Here you go hope this helps.
