the fact that the founders dissolved a weak, decentralized confederacy of independent states in favor a federal union with a strong national government at the helm should be evidence that they might have held more nuanced views of our modern state. — PolitiTweet.org

the obvious rejoinder is that there is a lot about the character of modern american society — black people, living as free citizens — that the founders never intended. but i would like to say that we should not concede the point about the size and scope of government either. — PolitiTweet.org

The Founders never intended the federal government to grow to this size.

well, the fact that Jefferson could not envision the end of slavery without the wholesale removal of black people from the United States, or that Madison was president of the American Colonization Society, is evidence for the point — PolitiTweet.org

@jbouie @jonathanchait Do you think Thomas Jefferson or Benjamin Franklin never intended black people living as free citizens?
