Go back to question 1. Address the opponents’ concerns. Does the method of selecting the president seem “guarded” to you or is Hamilton right? Defend your answer with evidence from the text

No, the method of selecting the government is not guarded, that is, shrouded in secrecy. I think that Hamilton is right because the process allowed for the involvement of the people in the electoral process.

Explanation:

Some opponents to the electoral process that was to be adopted in the constitution of the United States believed that the process was "pretty well guarded". This most likely means that they believed that the process was not really transparent. Hamilton objected to this when he said that the process was perfect or at least excellent. I think he is right given some of the reasons he quoted such as;

1. The people were allowed to participate in the process and no preestablished body would represent them.

2.  The electoral college chosen by the people possessed the right information, knowledge, and insight to represent them.

3. The fact that the electoral college made their votes in their respective states, made it harder to expose them to violence if they were to be conveyed in one place.

4. Senators and legislators were not to be part of the electoral college. They are chosen from the citizens, and they hold no political office.
