Do you think that any of the 17 amendments of the Constitution, subsequent to the first 10 (which became the Bill of Rights,) should also come under the auspices of "The Bill of Rights?"?

CWOTUS explained to me, in my original question that “The people promoting these ideaswere generally known as “anti-Federalists”. They wanted a much weaker government to coordinate the states, and insisted on the Bill of Rights as a precondition for their support of the Constitution as it was written.”

Would any of the subsequent 17 Amendments support the beliefs of the founders of the original Bill of Rights?
