"Somewhat contentious" I'd say that's fair.

Although I can't properly suggest a title for you, I can relate that there were two factions at the time, one pro-Bill of Rights and the other against. Alexander Hamilton was prominently anti-BoR as seen in Federalist Paper #84. I can't remember his particular objections.

Best of luck; HTH.
