Or for another TLDR,

The Founding Fathers wanted the USA to essentially be Switzerland before it was cool. (Or Switzerland existed)

Basically the founding fathers would hate the restrictions on the second amendment and REALLY hate the armed forces.

Switzerland actually gained independence in 1648, at the end of the 30-years-war

but i do see what you're going for.

My take on that is that it is terribly naive from a foreign policy perspective (that the founding fathers would think that way), but they seemed to be terribly idealistic in terms of foreign policy in the first place anyway.
