Madison I consider a genius and his cause noble, but I have to admit that the anti-federalists were right. Whatever the Constitution is, outline for good government or not, it is not what rules us today. It was not able to prevent an unconstitutional government from taking over, and therefore failed.
A point I make every time the topic comes up. The Anti-Federalists were right.

Until the Civil War, the Federal Government exercised relatively little power over the people. The only federal official the average person saw was the post-master.
