Answer to Question 1

Federalist Papers

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1. Explain hyperpluralists' belief that PACs buy influence in Washington, D.C., and provide at least one example, such as the timber industry influencing environmental regulations or the tobacco industry fighting the regulation of cigarette advertising.
2. Explain the alternative perspective that PACs only contribute to candidates who already agree with them and that PACs provide an important avenue for political participation.
3. Argue a position in light of these competing perspectives. For instance, one might argue that government would better serve the public interest without the influence of PACs. On the other hand, one might argue that PACs serve functions essential to democracy, including representing interests and funding campaigns.
