Purpose Behind The Constitution The Purpose Behind the Constitution During the scorching summer of 1787, the Philadelphia Convention organized itself to create a successful, acceptable, and strong government for what would become the United States of America. With the exception of Rhode Island, delegates from each state attended bringing with them the intention of revising the pre-existing Articles of Confederation. Through the arguments and controversies among present delegates, an individual came forth to introduce a new idea and a new form of government. That individual was James Madison. Madison’s Virginia Plan directed the convention in a new course, thus resulting in the creation of an entirely new government. With the best interest of the Union in mind, and an incredibly immense and trying task ahead, the delegates chose to adopt a new document of law representing their political beliefs and economic interests of the time. The Constitution was established in result to the “Articles of Failure.” The Founding Framers, consisting of political delegates, had the intentions to establish a government that would maintain order, and more importantly lasting structure, within the Union.
