Birth of the US Constitution 1777-1787
The current Constitution of the United States is the Perpetual Union's second. This video provides a brief history on the first constitution, the Articles of Confederation, its collapse and the process utilized to call the Philadelphia Convention of 1787 to form a More Perfect Union. The 1787 President of the United States and his Congress, ultimately, were responsible for the passage of our current US Constitution as they called the convention and choose not to change a word of the New Plan For the Federal Government sending it along to the States. This President and his Congress also passed the Northwest Ordinance , on which Daniel Webster would later remark: "We are accustomed to praise lawgivers of antiquity ... but I doubt whether one single law of any lawgiver, ancient or modern, has produced the effects of more distinct, marked, and lasting character than the Ordinance of 1787" These two laws, the US Constitution and The Northwest Ordinance are the products of the what this historian considers to be the most important US Presidency and Congress in American History. Do you the Presidents name?

The debates over and ratification of the US Constitution in 1787-1788 have been described as "the first great stroke of popular democracy in America and perhaps its most successful and momentous as well." This week on dialogue host John Milewski is joined by Pauline Maier, to discuss her new book Ratification: The People Debate the Constitution, 1787-1788. Maier draws on new sources to illustrate how the document we revere today as the foundation of our country's laws and the cornerstone of our legal system was not easily ratified but hotly contested in a year long debate which riveted the entire country.
