Luke and Donald join Robert Ovetz, author of We the Elites: Why the Constitution Serves the Few, for a discussion on the Constitution as a potent obstacle to political and social democracy in the United States. They begin with a discussion about the history and context of the Constitutional Convention of 1787 and the various anxieties the Framers held toward indigenous resistance, slave rebellions, and debtor revolts. They explore the document’s inner workings, including the various minoritarian checks scattered throughout. They comment on previous critiques of the Constitution and where those critiques have gone. They conclude by emphasizing why people concerned with any of the numerous problems of contemporary society should position the Constitution at the heart of their attack.
