“I go further, and affirm that bills of rights … are not only unnecessary in the proposed Constitution, but would even be dangerous. They could contain various exceptions to powers not granted; and on this very account, would afford a colorable pretext to claim more than were granted. For why declare that things shall not be done which there is no power to do?”
“The voice of the people has been said to be the voice of God; and, however generally this maxim has been quoted and believed, it is not true to fact. The people are turbulent and changing, they seldom judge or determine right.”
“Why has government been instituted at all? Because the passions of man will not conform to the dictates of reason and justice without constraint.”
“Safety from external danger is the most powerful director of national conduct. Even the ardent love of liberty will, after a time, give way to its dictates.”
Alexander Hamilton. I’d like to call him The King of Doublespeak. In the quotes above, we see what language he uses to step on our life-given protections. He shows himself to be a protector of big government, not of the people. We see he really doesn’t like us and has no trust for us and is ever ready to put us down. Seems to assume we can’t tell right from wrong. He has no idea what true love of liberty encompasses and what it will endure as it moves out-from-under tyranny. Alex should have gone back to that British Isle he was born on in The West Indies. American inhabitants do not take well to “DICTATES!!”
May The Trenches site be strongly upheld and supported. And Henry, thank you for being the strongest voice on the planet for Our Bill of Rights. We are weeding out the Hamiltons.

Something asserted but not quite proven From Hamilton’s bio:
Relationship with Jews and Judaism: Hamilton’s birthplace had a large Jewish community… He came into contact with Jews on a regular basis; as a small boy, he was tutored by a Jewish schoolmistress, and had learned to recite the Ten Commandments in the original Hebrew. Hamilton exhibited a degree of respect for Jews that was described by Chernow as “a life-long reverence.” He believed that Jewish achievement was a result of divine providence. Based primarily on the phonetic similarity of Lavien to a common Jewish surname, it has been suggested that Johann Lavien, the first husband of Hamilton’s mother, was Jewish or of Jewish descent. On this contested foundation, it was rumored that Hamilton himself was born Jewish, a claim that gained some popularity early in the 20th century.
I don’t have much Henry, but what little I can spare you got it Brother…

I can’t say Hamilton was the first traitor to our nation, but this guy seems to think so:
