Correct, and that is why Madison proposed two articles, one for
Congress and one for the states. The first was adopted and became the
First Amendment (after folding in some additional rights, like speech,
press, assembly, and petition). The second was rejected. But there were
no other proposals of separate amendments for Congress and the states,
indicating to me, from a knowledge of how the Founders thought, that
they were intended to cover both. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
