The smaller the number of individuals composing a majority, and the smaller the compass within which they are placed, the more easily will they concert and execute their plans of oppression. Extend the sphere, and you take in a greater variety of parties and interests; you make it less probable that a majority of the whole will have a common motive to invade the rights of other citizens. Which statement best reflects the principles of representation supported by James Madison in this passage?

a)The president represents the widest range of political viewpoints because a presidential election requires a majority in the Electoral College.

b)The Senate represents the widest variety of political views because each senator’s election rests on approval from a majority of voters in each state.

c)The House represents the widest range of political viewpoints because it contains a large number of members, all representing their constituents’ political views.
d)The federal court system ensures the widest number of viewpoints because judges outnumber other elected officials and therefore represent the most political views.
