Pure democracy for uneducated voters and removing limits on campaign finance (hinging on the argument that money is speech) seem like different issues to me. Related but different. I don't think disliking mob rule means liking what we have. Today we have unmitigated political spending aimed at manipulating and deceiving uneducated voters. We end up with voters less fit to vote and candidates less fit to lead. Any change you could make to put candidates on a level playing field where they aren't beholden to campaign funders could only make this country work better. The honest truth needs a chance to win over rhetoric. You're right though, I shouldn't project my views onto the founders just because I think they did a good job on the Constitution in the context of their time.
