Are you familiar with "Original Intent"?

I am. You apparently are not. At the time Madison submitted his suggested amendments to the Consitution there were only 11 States in the Union. My guess is that Alaska was not one of them...perhaps you might look that up. There may have even been others...Hawaii mabye?
