What are some (two) dangers of majority rule (using evidence from madison and other federalist papers and founding documents )

The correct answer is:

It would lead to tyranny, it would deprive the minority of their rights.

Explanation:

The principal danger of majority rule according to the Founding Fathers of the United States is that if the majority of a government is composed by people with the same ideals and commitments it would lead to tyranny and there would be little tolerance for any who disagreed.

James Madison refers to this danger in the Federalist essay No. 10, and also talks about the necessary evil of factions, and how factions would prevent majority rule leading to tyranny because of the diversity of opinions.

The second danger of a majority rule according to the Federalist essay No. 51  is that if a majority is united by a common interest, the rights of the minority would be deprived. If the majority elects representatives willing to pass laws that only benefit that majority, the minority's rights would be compromised.

social contract theory basically says that all individuals are born equal, and provided a god given right to consent to be governed. american government is based of this

thomas hobbes and john locke said that we are selfish, individualistic, and constantly at war with each other, therefore we need to be controlled. 

government is defined as the legitimate use of force to control human behavior within territorial boundaries, here comes in hobbes and locke.

hobbes takes the part about controlling human behavior. while locke takes the part of legitimate use of force, since force is not legitimate unless there is consent of the people. 

there are basically 3 goals of the government: 1) maintain order by protecting life and property. 2) providing public goods, those which are typically not provided by the public sector, such as roads and education. 3) promote equality be it political, opportunist or outcome equality.
