If it was that simple, we wouldn't be having these arguments

Of course, the Federalist Papers were written for, what was at that time, the common man who, for the most part, were farmers. Just goes to show that people during that era who were mostly homeschooled in history, spelling, penmanship, etc., were better educated than people are now. We won't even get into the subversions of the Constitution that took place during the Jackson and Lincoln administrations. ;-)
