America's founding fathers also had some framers of the Constitution in their ranks. Most historians agree that the founders and framers of the US Constitution envisaged the treaty making process to be the mutual agreement between US president and the US Senate.

That means that from the eyes of the court or people what or how did they look at it? And how they felt towards it.
Dedi, In the constitution you occasionally find the phrase, "Indians not taxed". The Indians were considered to be sovereign nations even though they were within the borders claimed by the United States. Relations with them were governed by treaties. Those treaties had to be negotiated and ratified by the Senate just like treaties with any other country. Michael Montagne Dedi, I think they clearly planned out Manifest Destiny for this country when they included this grievance: "He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions"
A strict interpretation of the Constitution states that the government of the United States holds only those powers specifically granted to it by the Constitution. A loose interpretation of the Constitution posits that the government of the United States hold all powers that are not specifically denied to it by the Constitution.
Separation of powers

Jefferson, who was minister to France at the time the Constitution was written, referred to the framers as "demi-gods." From an historical point of view, they seem that way.
Baron de Montesquieu
One view in particular was expressed by Founding Father Benjamin Franklin. When asked by a citizen what type of government the Framers had created, his answer was: A republic, if you can keep it".

The idea of John Locke's powerful executive in times of an emergency did not appear in the Framers' view of the US Constitution. They made no provision regarding the Lockian view of a powerful executive in times of an emergency. The closest they came to that was the allowed suspension of habeas corpus. Even in that they did not specify that the power of suspension belonged solely to the chief executive. Writing in the Federalist Papers, Framer Clinton Rossiter stated that the Constitution was "equal to any emergency".Later during the US Civil War, President Lincoln would create that power for himself.

That person would have a 'strict' construction view of the Constitution. The other view is termed a 'loose' construction. The loose view believes if the Constitution doesn't prohibit the act (or law) it is okay.
