The main way that people participate in government is by voting. Other ways to be active in government is by lobbying, petitioning, and participating in boycotts and protests.(I'm not saying that you should go out and protest, but if you feel strongly about an issue, it is within your power to do so, so long as it does not grow out of hand.)by voting or registering to vote and participating in parties, jury duty, or voting in elections.
There are many ways why the Americans in 1789 wanted a shield of protection from the government. The American citizens wanted this because they did not want the government to be too powerful. This includes the Judicial Branch, the Legislative Branch, and the Executive Branch. They did not want any part of the government to have too much power, so this is why they wanted checks and balances. Checks and balances are, in the Constitution, ways of limiting the powers of the three parts (branches) of the government. The American citizens let's say did not want police to be able to shoot the American citizens without good reason. This is what could happen if one part of the government becomes to powerful. I believe that this is why the American citizens wanted checks and balances, and why they wanted a shield of protection from the government.
A weak government typically has limited powers and lacks control over its citizens and institutions. It may struggle to enforce laws and maintain stability. Conversely, a strong government has extensive powers and authority to govern its citizens effectively, enforce laws, and maintain order and stability. It is capable of making and implementing policies efficiently.
