Both the strengths and weaknesses of the American 'republican democracy' were illustrated in the various reform-movements that occurred in the 19th century and beyond, including abolition and women's rights. Just one of the strengths illustrated was the social freedom that enabled these movements to be made publicly at local and national levels. At the same time, a weakness was illustrated: just causes are not, by virtue of being just, necessarily going to be respected or pursued, as they depend on a significant opinion-shift in society in combination with decisive (and lawful) action by governmental authorities -- neither of which is guaranteed in the workings of a truly democratic society.
The strength in which was demonstrated in abolition and women's rights in early America was that although there was a written constitution, the US government was flexible enough to change laws and amendments due to changes in ideas over time. Even though the people of America can change, the weakness was that changes took a long time and needed a clear majority to be able to reform and although when the amendments were changed, the people still sometimes hold prejudices against the issue.
