<span>An arms race denotes a rapid increase in the quantity or quality of instruments of military power by rival states in peacetime. The first modern arms race took place when France and Russia challenged the naval superiority of Britain in the late nineteenth century. Germany’s attempt to surpass Britain’s fleet spilled over into World War I, while tensions after the war between the United States, Britain and Japan resulted in the first major arms-limitation treaty at the Washington Conference.

One of them, acting as a spokesperson, interpellates the writers of the Constitution by asking them to scratch the first words of the Constitution ("We, the people..") and replace them with the statement "We, the anonymous corporate donors, untraceable foreign contributors and assorted billionaires.." So, if the U.S. Constitution began as suggested by the cartoon, the Supreme Court would make decisions that favored corporations ("we, the anonymous corporate donors") over individuals ("we, the people"). Fortunately this is not the case, but, throughout its history, and depending upon the Chief Justice who has led it, the Supreme Court has sometimes been especially friendly to business.
The new plan of government centralized power in the federal government at the expense of state authorities. American leaders sought to draft the Constitution as a new plan of government.
