Grunt

No reasonable person can deny that Rousseau's Social Contract had a significant influence on the framing of the Constitution.*

Unfortunately, either Rousseau or those framers completely fucked something up, because Rousseau says that representative government is a form of tyranny and obviously, the Constitution says otherwise.

This is extremely problematic.

*If this is not true I will kill myself immediately, because my senior thesis will in fact be a complete and total farce at that point.
