I mean, Hamilton wasn't my favorite, but I don't see why many would not like them. Everything is best in context, and in context, they were so far ahead of their time. And I doubt that Barack wouldn't see or acknowledge that.
they were ahead of their time, the founders read a lot, and Madison read about government before he framed the blueprint for the Constitution months before the Constitutional convention, and he asked himself the question "why do governments fail"
because they turn tyrannical in the end.
a king becomes a dictator
rule of the few becomes an oligarchy
rule by all, becomes mob rule
our founders sought to solve this problem by incorporating all three governments into American government
monarchy aristocracy, and democracy.
which when there are three different types of government within American government, tyranny cannot take place because each has power to prevent the takeover of the other.
