As for talking to the prof, its up to you. Consider :

1. beeing "keen" and interested may be good for some consideration at final grade time

2. Do you enjoy such debates? If you do, go for it!!

3. Its possible you could convince your prof of something and maybe improve your grade !! But absent evidence to the contrary, I would assume your con law prof would be extremely well versed in the area and would know if an argument is viable or not-- But you know the prof better

Well, I know now that he was looking for the burden on interstate commerce, but I don't see how that makes my argue weaker. Being keen might help out at final grade time, but I'm almost certain I already have a A in the class. He is well versed in law, a Columbia law school graduate, but on the other hand he very old and forgets a lot of things. I guess it wouldn't hurt to talk to him, I just didn't want to look like an idiot making an argument that is unsound.

sounds like you are arguing two different things

you're arguing from the constitutional stand point; which is how the question is worded

him, from the stand point that you're a stupid student and should shut-up and come to his office hours so he can hit on you

Why don't you go to his office?

It's just that your argument isn't particularly strong.
