Ratification/Compromise

​Constitution=Compromise

The Constitution of the United States was a dynamic document that only passed because of compromise. Federalists had to create a document that outlined power, but limited power, banned slavery, but at the same time permitted it, allowed freedom, but protected it. Anti-Federalist Patrick Henry, Sam Adams, and George Mason were NOT going to ratify the document without a bill of rights. The compromise was the passage of Constitution, but with the first ten amendments called the Bill of RIGHTS. The Federalist signed on to the bill of rights, so long as they were adjudicated, meaning people only got them if they fought for them using the courts.
