Those "brilliant" white men of privilege didn't count women, didn't count blacks, didn't trust direct elections, and all but permanently enshrined a tyranny of the minority with the so-called "Great Compromise," ensuring the over-representation of small states in the Senate and the Electoral College.D.F.
