Not so much. Capitalism as we know it was just starting to develop at that time, since then it has matured and is now in it's final stage of historical development, ie. it is now characterised by monopoly, Imperialism and financialisation. Smith wrote about capitalism when it was just in it's infancy and had little idea of what capitalism would like like in say 100 years. Quite unlike Marx, Capital is probably more relevant now than it was in the mid-late 1800's, Smith is not very relevant anymore.

The US Constitution says absolutely nothing about capitalism. The only oblique reference to capitalism is in the Preamble where it has the phrase "secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity". Liberty, when the US Constitution was written, referred to economic freedom to open, manage, and close businesses as well as freely shop at any business. So, the US Constitution was arguing that one of the key purposes of the US Constitution was to guarantee a free-market economy.

Colonial CapitalismWhen the American colonies were still part of the British empire, and later when they declared their independence,the capitalistic system, as we know it today, did not exist. Modern capitalism developed after the Civil War, but while we were still colonies, the ideas of capitalism were governing the British and Colonial economies. The father of modern capitalism is Adam Smith, but America had its share of capitalistic minded men such as Alexander Hamilton and Benjamin Franklin. The purpose of the colonies was to provide material to Great Britain, who in turn would manufacture goods for sale back to the colonies and to other nations. This was known as the mercantile system. In that sense, Britain and America were capitalistic nations. MrVThe answer of your question would be Adam Smith.
Capitalism is the economic system that dominates the world today. Economics is a study that tries to understand how economies work, when economists today refer to the economy, they are referring to the capitalist system.
