Eric Zuesse The propaganda about propaganda is that it’s only direct deceit against the public by the Government (like America’s Founders thought to be the case when they wrote the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution); but, in an aristocracy — which is a Government by only the super-rich, who control the ‘news’-media by owning it and by funding it with their corporations’ advertisements — propaganda is actually instead by and represents the people who, behind the scenes, control the Government, because the real Government is the one behind the facade (the facade being the elected political leaders), and these actually controlling individuals are the aristocrats, the billionaires, the super-rich, who are the megadonors to political campaigns, the few individuals who
It's all propaganda...everything you hear, read or see. The existence of 95% of the world is based on getting the public to believe or think in a way that supports the marketing of the master-slave relationship. They are the sellers and the unaware and asleep are the buyers.
My articles are not propaganda. But mainstream media (and some of the non-mainstream media too) are funded by billionaires, and those are propaganda. Having endless amounts of funding means that when the public are polled, the results show opinions that are overwhelmingly shaped by the few people who are billionaires. This makes democracy impossible. Obviously, therefore, the rights of all of the super-rich need to be cut way back in order for democracy to be able to exist at all. Any attempt to do that would cause massive amounts of propaganda saying that it would be discrimination against the super-rich. But it's necessary in order to prevent the super-rich from preventing democracy. Furthermore: any common criminal has his rights cut way back by the Government, but produces far less harm to society than a billionaire produces -- to prevent democracy is a crime so vast that it dwarfs all of the crimes that are committed by all of the ordinary criminals put together. So, all of that propaganda will be just as false as the other propaganda that billionaires fund. With vast personal wealth, there needs to come vast personal obligations, and any billionaire who opposes those obligations is an enemy of the public and deserves to be treated as such -- in spades. Otherwise, justice will never be possible.
Madison was certainly among the Founders. He was the main author of the Bill of Rights. However, the others who influenced him in his various drafts of it, such as Jefferson, also were Founders. Why do you deny it?
What you say is false; and in order that you may easily verify for yourself that it is so, I suggest you consult Steven J. Schuyler's excellent “HISTORY: THE BILL OF RIGHTS: HOW THE FIRST 10 AMENDMENTS CAME TO BE” at https://archive.is/AJxWb
He said that amending the Articles of Confederation was "beyond hope" but he didn't explain that was determined by men with increasing tyranny in mind.
All one has to know, which you haven't mentioned, is that James Madison was the official scribner of the constitutional convention, keeping the best contiguous record of the sessions. If Steven J. Schuyler wasn't there, he had to go by second, third, fourth, or who knows what hand.

America’s Founders didn't write the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
It was mostly James Madison that wrote the Bill of Rights in consultation with the newly formed Congress.

It is easy to deny what you appear to have made up.

There was no "official scribner." And Madison wasn't the only one who took notes there. But his were the most extensive set of notes.
The absence of an official scribner only happens in a star chamber.
