LETTERS TO THE EDITOR | Anyone check with Madison’s ghost?

To the editor:

To allay the fears of Anti-Federalists, James Madison wrote in Federalist No. 45:

“The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government, are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite.”

Have any of the psychic readers of the Record, who claim to know the thoughts of Madison, consulted with his ghost in the matter of the Affordable Care Act?
