Thomas jefferson was not at the convention. he was serving as minister to france and was abroad. he called the convention "an assembly of demigods." does this indicate a tendency toward the federalist or anti-federalist side of the constitutional debate?

This is statement is an indication of his support of the Federalist side of the constitutional debate; what Thomas Jefferson said was that the convention was "an assembly of demigods" who were inclined towards making "good and wise" decisions.
