John,

If you GOOGLED then you well understand what I meant about message vs messinger ...

Regarding your last point, I beg to differ ... to paraphrase Brother Alexander Joseph from my American Constitutional History course too many years ago ... you just need to see the difference in philosophies in Hamilton and Jefferson, the necessary compromise to get the tenth ammendment into the Bill of Rights, and the many precedent setting decisions of the John Marshall Supreme Court to see the rise of politcal parties almost from the inception of the idea of the United States ...
