Great section! This sentence: “This reform in Athens was unknown by the Framers and political theorists at the time of the Convention as a possible solution.” should include a footnote or explanatory sentence after it telling about the recovered document that showed how this Athenian reform did happen. The study of the federalist papers and the constitutional convention should be required in high school if not before. Most US citizens don’t have a clue about what you said here or any other part of early US history. I’m thinking maybe a movie or television series should come out giving life to the debates held before the constitution was signed, and what these founders REALLY thought!
