4 ways: -Government system -method for elections / who can run -terms -politicians
A) we created a federal, constitutional, representative, democratic republic, leaving the English monarchy and parliament.
B) we use electoral college vs English inheritance
C) our highest level of national office has a term limit (kind of, it’s not in constitution, but Washington set a precedent of only 2 terms.)
D) the officials and politicians answer to their constituents. If they are unhappy, the politician will likely be called back. Rather than your constituents living hundred miles away, like in England, they are right in you hometown, local.
