Americas Flawed Constitution :: American History

Americas Flawed Constitution Right from the beginning of its earthly concern the makeup of the United States has been a shaky memorial. The very basis for it be there was in fact illegal. The story of American politics starts with the announcement of Independence. This document was brilliantly written by Thomas Jefferson and compacted all of the large ideas of enlightenment into one short easy to read paper. The declaration stated all of the ideals the new American nation would strive for. A administration was unavoidable as a way in which to fulfill those goals. The articles of compact were created as that constitution. However, they were weak, because no state wanted to give away some(prenominal) of their powers, and so the articles eventually failed. That is when the modern day constitution was starting to form. The Articles of cabal stated that in order to change all part of the document all thirteen states must agree to the change. Therefor a confrontation was call ed so that they could amend the failing articles. However, representatives from two of the states did not show up. unconstipated though not all states were represented the meeting started and the first take was to totally throw away the Articles of Confederacy. The constitution wasnt formed nonetheless and it was already a flawed document. Because not all states were represented when the articles compulsory it, the constitution was an illegal document. The delegates working on the constitution new that they needed a stronger document, because the articles proved too weak, but it still needed to delight all of the states. This was impossible. So what ended up happening was the new ducocument became more and more vague. The only way to create a document that would last was to make a document which didnt really solve any problems but make each state believe that there problems would be fixed. This was accomplished by making it so that it was too vague to develop anybody but you could read into it. This made for a document that would be earnestly flawed because people would be able to read into it too much. It could not work. The Constitution of the United States of America was too vague to work. The way the constitution was written it gave power to four parts the congress, the executive branch, the judicial branch, and the states. Because it was so vague it did not really define which powers went where (with a few exceptions).
