Clearly, it isn't, because it is being brought up today in courts. We know what the Constitution says, and we know what the Federalist Papers say, and we know what they meant. Yet the Supreme Court ruled differently. And that is the issue at hand. I fail to see how you can just say "it is irrelevant." It isn't!
