I'm afraid you're demonstrating a profound ignorance of both history and
Constitutional jurisprudence.

Common debating ruse - if you cannot attack the truth attack the messenger.
Works well on the Homer Simpson crowd, as Bush has oft demonstrated.

Do you disagree that Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, et al authored most of the
Constitution? If so, who do you think did so? Hamilton?

Do you claim that Hamilton was not killed by Burr, who as VP had finished
second in the presidential election?
