@paki Bills of rights "have no application to constitutions professedly founded upon the power of the people, and executed by their immediate representatives and servants. Here, in strictness, the people surrender nothing, and as they retain everything, they have no need of particular reservations."–Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 84 Hamilton argues in this quote that a list of rights in the Constitution is unnecessary because the government's power is already limited a list of rights should be added to the Constitution before the state legislatures vote whether to ratify

representatives of the people should have the task of determining protections for individual rights people should choose their representatives and other leaders very carefully to protect their rights

"Federalist No. 84 is notable for presenting the idea that a Bill of Rights was not a necessary component of the proposed United States Constitution. The Constitution, as originally written, did not specifically enumerate or protect the rights of the people. It is alleged that many Americans at the time opposed the inclusion of a bill of rights: if such a bill were created, they feared, this might later be interpreted as a list of the only rights that people had."
