That makes it more, not less, important for that expansive government to be highly responsive to elections.

Why is that? My statement was on the scale of centuries not 4 years

For what reasons should the government be expected to shift dramatically every election?

Personally my argument would be that the government's authority should be limited enough that it doesn't have to change very much every election.
