Majority rule means that whoever has the biggest vote, is the one that wins. For example, if 6 people think tacos should be for dinner, but 2 think it should be salad, tacos wins.

What does it mean for the majority to rule with respect to the minority?

In a system of majority rule, everyone agrees to abide by the decision of the majority. That is the foundation of the Democratic Process. As an example, the majority of Americans voted for President Obama, and he was voted into office. Some, the minority, did not vote for him, but, by the Democratic Process, embodied in the US Constitution, everyone implicitly agrees that he is the President of the United States. That does not mean that everyone agrees with him, but it does mean that they will support him in his role as President.
