Neal, who?

But, anyways, the point is the ratification of the Bill of Rights was a
process that started at about the same time the Constitution was put
forth for ratification. It just took longer for the necessary number of
states to ratify the ten amendments. A couple of states refused to
ratify the Constitution unless and until a Bill of Rights was included
for ratification by the states. It wasn't a case of Constitution
first/Bill of Rights second. It was a concurrent affair.

Friggin' history illiterates!!!!

And Neal is still wrong.

"Amendments 1-10 are called the Bill of Rights. They were part of the
Constitution when it was ratified."

The Bill of Rights was not part of the Constitution when it was ratified.

Lets see now. That's Neil AKA Wilbur AKA Gregory AKA God knows who
else. Ego is fine but too many egos are called bi-polar disorder..

Cheers,
