judge maggs: he has a premise on a question. i agree with the premise.e biggest concerns they had to address is now we will have a more powerful central government which means the states will be less powerful which means you might not have as much liberty as you might otherwise have. one of the biggest challenges the authors faced was how to explain that this was actually going to be an improvement. they talked about a lot of different things. they talked about the fact that if the union fell apart, every individual state would have to have their own standing army to defend itself but if we had a union we would not need a standing army of this kind. if you had a federal government and state government to check each other. you mentioned today, is it the case that we have to sacrifice liberty in order to have a successful government. i hope not. as a judge i do not really get into politics but i do not think this is a new debate. it is very similar to the debate you pointed out occurred back then. peter: colleen from arizona state university, you have 30 s
