>> Our Founding Fathers did a great job. It was not perfect, or they would have banned slavery from the beginning, <<

our founding fathers were smart enough to realize that the constitution would never have been ratified if they demanded slavery be abolished from the very start. they had the wisdom to set up a framework by which slavery could eventually be eradicated in due course.

>> But the main thing is that even if they were right 90% of the time, they were not infallible, <<

i don't believe anyone claims they were.

>> I would not rely on Jefferson's opinions on medicine or astrophysics, and I will not rely on Hamilton's and Clay's opinions on tariffs......... <<

then what makes you think you should rely on the opinions of someone like milton friedman?
