Question

Why do we say that liberal could not be called Democrats

Answer 1

the liberals could not be called as democrats because

1. they did not believe in universal adult franchise, that is, the right of every citizen to vote.

2. they felt men of property mainly should have the right to vote

all these things are not a part of democracy
