In England a King . . . [is] allowed eight hundred thousand sterling a year for, and worshipped into the bargain! Of more worth is one honest man to society . . . than all the crowned ruffians that ever lived. Based on the excerpt, Paine believes that the monarchy in England

1. is overpaid and harms the country.
2. has a right to rule but does not do a good job.
3. should be allowed to make important decisions.
4. should be worshipped only by church members.

gaius cassius longinus and marcus junius brutus, former enemies of julius caesar who'd joined the roman senate, led caesar's assassination, dubbing themselves "the liberators." and the second one is   the assassination of julius caesar was the result of a conspiracy by many roman senators led by gaius cassius longinus, decimus junius brutus albinus, and marcus junius brutus. they stabbed caesar (23 times) to death in a location adjacent to the theatre of pompey on the ides of march 15 march 44 bc.

it was certainly a debatable decision, mainly because it was based primarily on political - and not on legal or social - views. since the congress at that time was led by members of the republican party, and the territory that the tribes wanted to turn into an exclusively indian state was predominantly democratic, the proposal (as expressed in the constitution) did not succeed, but the constitution itself proved to be of crucial importance in the creation of the state of oklahoma, and, most importantly, it guaranteed the involvement of representatives of the indian tribes in the government of the future joint state.  

as a member of congress, i would have voted to ratify the constitution, or at least to have it tabled. ignoring it was an interested and partial decision.
