Yes, all you have to go on is The Federalist Papers, extensive histories of personal letters amongst them, speeches, and nearly three centuries of books written about them and the early days of the country.
You forgot the Anti-Federalist Papers, The Constitutional Debates, their personal journals, and opinion articles in publications of the time which included many of the FF's quotes. I doubt Ayesha Khan, like many of her ilk, got past the "promote the general welfare" clause in the preamble of the Constitution. They extrapolate that and the "commerce clause" to the extreme and way past historically verified INTENT.
Some are even stupid enough to include the "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" clause in the preamble of the Declaration of Independence that holds no legal standing. It's astounding how so many of these "living constitution" self-appointed experts have no to little knowledge of the FF's INTENT.
While the FF's could not foresee a gazillion lawyers parsing and spinning their statements, the documents are there for anyone to review. There was no ambiguity in their INTENT for the new Republic as evidenced in all we cite above.
I know, right?
“You can’t KNOW! All you have are REAMS and REAMS of contemporaneous EVIDENCE backed by subsequent, scholarly legal exposition! You can’t KNOW! You can only be 99 and 44/100ths percent sure. What HUBRIS to think there’s ANY possible way that you could even BEGIN to know!”
Leftism is psychopathy.
