Do you think representative democracy is working today as Madison intended? Why or why not?

No

Explanation: The reason i don't think it is working is because the their are many issues one such could be gerrymandering in which a political party makes seats favor them against the opposing party when originally it may have favored the opposing party technically you are not really representing the people since gerrymandering also another problem is big bossiness buying out politicians the person you may support for government may get in but if they get bought off it really wont matter since they will be serving the interest of the corporation

should i answer this question?

explanation:

the big stick policy was to still look powerful, and be nice at the same time. the big stick policy was also to countries who were at war, find peace with eachother.

the dollar diplomacy was to expand american business and get it to latin america, for that would be good for the economy.

you my friend, your regards.
