If we were to become something of a nation the Articles had to be replaced.

For those at this forum with reflexive Hamilton hate-ons, consider the words of Aristotle, "No state can exist not having the necessary offices, and no state can be well administered not having the offices which tend to preserve harmony and good order."

For those at this forum with reflexive Hamilton hate-ons,...

Do you really think there are any of those?

What I see are a few folks with some understanding as to the TRUE history of our founding vs the government propaganda taught in our public schools these days.

Hamilton was what he was and no amount of revision will ever change that.

Hamilton KNEW from the start, as did John Jay and many other of his High federalist cohorts, that if the Constitution as written were strictly adhered to their dreams of a mercantile empire were doomed!! That is why they never stopped the process of trying to undermine it. There is no hate in that statement simply recognition of the facts.
