I don't recall the Constitution saying anything about official immunity other than the Speech and Debate clause, but I could be wrong. Sovereign immunity seems to be something the Courts engrafted into American law notwithstanding the Founders' rejection of the sovereign approach to government--monarchy.

"As the founders intended."

How quaint.
