My name is Alexander Hamilton and I represent New York
I'm James Madison and I represent Virginia
We are here today to amend the Articles of Confederation, in light of event such as Shay's rebellion and calls for stronger central government
Of course we must be careful not to cross certain lines concerning matters of individual freedoms and liberty

The Constitutional Convention, on September 17, 1787, gave birth to the American Constitution. The American Constitution helped solidify America's independent national identity and to this day is the cornerstone of most American values. It is still considered a near untouchable document that should have nothing removed from it, and only the most important things added to it.
