About the series (from Docuseek):

Confounding Father:  A Contrarian View of the U.S. Constitution is a classroom friendly documentary that tells the story of the constitutional convention from the contrarian viewpoint of anti-federalists. It serves as a timely reexamination of the U.S. political system and features Luther Martin, a Maryland delegate to the 1787 constitutional convention who:

• Opposed the continuation of the slave trade and the three-fifths clause
• Feared the unlimited taxing power of the national government
• Thought many framers of the constitution were seeking an American empire
• Drank too much, talked too much, and annoyed the famous founding fathers
