At that level of abstraction and simplification, sure.

People often ask, "What would the Founders say about situation X in 2011?" Whatever it is, the implication is they'd be appalled, especially if it hadn't existed in 1789.

We don't know what "the Founders" would say.

Their individual opinions would probably differ at least as much as they did in the Federalist/Anti-Federalist age.

A time-traveling Founder, with no recollection or understanding of the events of the past 200+ years, would make a lousy adviser.

On the other hand, a 275-year-old Founder, who *had* lived through the past 200 years, might make an outstanding adviser. But he might not say what you's expect him to.

The above holds true no matter what one's political viewpoint today.
