" Each State, in ratifying the Constitution, is considered as a sovereign body,
independent of all others, and only to be bound by its own voluntary act.
In this relation, then, the new Constitution will, if established,
be a FEDERAL, and not a NATIONAL constitution.
" James Madison Federalist No. 39, January 1788
