Summary:

The ratification battle still echoes in American politics--Luther Martin published and spoke vehemently against the U.S. Constitution. The Bill of Rights was a concession to opponents and not favored by many famous Founders. The U.S. Constitution has become more democratic and thus upends the original intention of the framers, but does it still primarily protect white elites?
