The Creation of the Constitution
Storyboard Text
- This should be interesting
- Alright everybody, let us head inside and begin the meeting.
- Well said my good man!
- Hopefully we will resolve these issues
- Aye!
- Aye!
- We must all take a vow of silence. Nobody outside of this room should be involved in this. All in favor say "Aye".
- Aye!
- Aye!
- I agree!
- Articles of Confederation
- I think we should replace the Articles with a whole new structure.
- I believe I have a way that will solve everyone's problems. I call it, the Virginia Plan
- There is one problem with that gentleman. How would we tie it to the government in a way that satisfies everyone?
- Both of these gentleman have stated some interesting points. However. Mr.Paterson's idea is just really a step backwards from what we are trying to do here.
- I also believe the government should be split into three branches. However, I believe that the number of representatives should be determined based on the population of the state.
- I propose that we divide the government into three branches and that each state get 1 vote no matter its size.
- Then it is settled, we will go along with Mr. Shermans "Great Compromise"
- That idea is not so bad. I say we do it.
- I propose that each state gets 2 seats in Congress and then depending on the population of the state, a certain number of representatives.
- The slaves have no right being counted.
- Gentleman please there is a solution to this. How about only a portion of the slaves in each state be counted. Let's say 3/5?
- I vote they not be counted. That only benefits all those in the south.
- I vote they be counted!
- They are a part of the state population and whether you recongize it or not, they do live among us. So, I vote the be counted.
