discussion post paradox of democratic development

2 paragraphs responding to the following prompt:

The early republic witnessed a paradox of democratic development. On the one hand, more Americans participated in political life, yet whole segments of the population in America—notably slaves and Native Americans—were excluded from American democracy. How did this period reconcile this apparent paradox? How did it justify expanding political participation for white men while relocating Native Americans, enslaving blacks of African decent, and denying women of all ranks important roles in public life?
