Why did the founders decide to use the electoral college to elect the president rather than allowing congress or the people to directly elect president?
They felt that most of the population, the direct voters, were insufficiently educated and lacked the knowledge to understand "government" and to make intelligent decisions regarding how the country should be run and who should be in charge of the country. The electoral process was supposed to appoint educated and intelligent people to make such decisions. The concept was a good one but the implementation of the process did not conform to the intent.

Why is the electoral college included in the original constitution?
The electoral college was included in the original constitution of the US because the authors of the constitution did not entirely trust democracy, which at the time was considered to be an experimental form of government, in a world governed by monarchies. It was thought to be prudent to have the general public elect electors, who would then elect a President, rather than having the general public directly elect a President. This way, the public gets to choose wise people to act on their behalf, and the outcome would be less likely to be disastrous. In practice the Electoral College doesn't really operate that way. They elect whomever the public wants them to elect, for good or for ill.
What is the difference between a representative government and a responsible government?
A representative government is supposedly the U.S. government. Theoretically, we hold elections to elect our REPRESENTATIVES, who are supposed to represent what the majority of their constituents rule on an issue (i.e., "of, by and for people." A representative's constituents reside in a designated geographical area called districts, for whom the representative is elected. Of course, our laws claim representative government. It is anything but. Politics used to be an honorable profession. Responsible government is when representatives come together representing the COMMON good for the greater good, not the special interest good purchased by money to benefit only a chosen few.
