I think it's impossible to create an idea in a vacuum. There is always some intellectual genealogy or a previous connection that allows the development of new and advanced ideas. Certainly the Constitution is influenced by European Thinkers. Montesquieu develops the principle of divided government and its practical execution of checks and balances. The emphasis on human freedom and liberty is a Voltaire.
