Why the Founders Feared Democracy 😨 — And Chose a Republic

When the Founding Fathers crafted the Constitution, they weren’t just building a new government — they were making a choice that would define the future of liberty. And it wasn’t a democracy.

It was a republic — carefully, deliberately, fearfully.

In this powerful episode of Echoes In Time, we explore the real reasons the Founders turned away from pure democracy. What were they afraid of? What did they see in history that made them believe that mob rule was just another form of tyranny?

You’ll discover:

🔥 Why democracy terrified thinkers like Madison and Hamilton
