Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will
1, Define the trustee model as one where representatives are elected to do what they think is best for their constituents, taking into consideration a longer timeframe and broader national picture, as described by Edmund Burke.
2, Define the delegate model as one where representatives are elected to do the bidding of the people who elected them.
3, Relates these models to the issue explaining that representatives in the smaller states are taking a delegate position to ensure the immediate needs of their constituents are met, by providing money for jobs and extra security. Representatives in the smaller states do not have an incentive to take a trustee position, which might cause them to sacrifice the immediate gratification of their districts for the good of the nation.
