No offense @alex_hammyham and friends but increasing federal power isn't the answer to control. #DemocraticRepublican #StateAndCitizenRights

[James Monroe @jmonroe1758]

I agree with Antifederalist Paper No.9- it is not correct to give all the power to the upper class, or else we will be a monarchy #Democracy

[James Monroe @jmonroe1758]

Is it just me or does the Constitution give too much power to the government and not enough rights for the people? #DontRatify #NotReady

[James Monroe @jmonroe1758]

My friend @JamesMadison is a genius! The #VirginiaPlan is the way to go! Let's work from it to solve representation issues. #AlmostThere

[James Monroe @jmonroe1758]

Loving how we are having a Bill of Rights! We needed this in Britain! #BetterGovernment #FreedomAndRights

[James Monroe @jmonroe1758]

Articles of Confederation need to support citizen rights. Couldnt agree with you more @JamesMadison #Deficiencies http://t.co/MhEoP7NONA
