what Jefferson wrote in his Federalist papers

Notice it doesn't say anything about "universal health care, or social security, or medicare?

True.  It also denied women the right to vote and allowed slavery.  There's no mention of the Internet, the financial service industry, modern communication techniques, etc.  Do you advocate a return to the original Constitution, minus amendments?  If it was such a perfect document, there would've been no need for amendments in the first place.

BTW Owner, the Sarah Palin quote's a myth.  Tina Fey said that. Palin said this, in the interview with Couric: "We have trade missions back and forth. We-- we do-- it's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where-- where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is-- from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to-- to our state."
