They needed everything it be in order so things wouldn't get out of control. They needed people to make laws so things could be in order

The colonists originally were inspired by the Romans who had a direct democracy. The colonists wanted to change this up a little. (Due to the inconvenience of a direct democracy and other factors) Which now makes America a representative democracy.
