The Framers of the U.S. Constitution

 The delegates to the Constitutional Convention constituted an educational and economic elite—they were not the “common man.” Discuss whether an elite can be representative of people from other strata in society. Consider this question in terms of the modern U.S. Congress which is made up of a core group of elites from the upper crust of society.  Is it possible for members of Congress to be representative of constituents from other strata of society, lower economic status?
