It’s part of a larger issue. Everyone seems to do this. I think a lot of people think they’re two halves of the same ‘Founding Document’.

Ask someone under the age of - say 50 - what the Federalist Papers are, or what the Magna Carta is. Most will look at you like you've spoken to them in a ancient Greek dialect.

Better yet, ask someone under 50 what year the Constitution was ratified, and where it was ratified.
