d. It establishes a representative government.

The U. S. has been characterized for being a representative democratic nation for a long time now. The Constitution protects democratic ideals by guaranteeing people's right of electing their representatives: The President, the members of the bicameral house, and local and state officials, who will aim to act for the good of the nation for a certain period of time until new balloting occurs.

D is the correct answer.

The US Constitution sets up a system where citizens are heard by their representatives who then act on their behalf. This allows for Democracy to be scaled up.
