Jefferson was an idiot (imo)- Hamiltonian Democracy is what I favor. Hamilton knew
that "the people is rabble" .

Remember that at our countries founding the men FOUNDING it thought only white
propertied men should be determining it's course. If this were still true there would
probably be NO demonstrations EVER allowed for anything (well maybe you could
have a rally in favor of your favorite mutli-national corporation). So if you are a true
constructionist Constitution hugger you would do well to remember that.

But I don't know how well you understand the difference between Hamiltonian and
Jeffersonian Democracy. I mean this honestly- I really haven't read enough of your posts
to have a sense of what your ideas are on the basic principles of Democracy as they
apply to this country and I don't want to guess at your position.
