it played the ten amendments
The first ten amendments to the Constitution - the Bill of Rights - were adopted when the Constitution itself was; in 1787.
They proposed a series of amendments to guarantee citizens' rights.
John Hancock promised to have "The bill of rights" that had delagates ratify the Constitution. The bill of rights are amendments or rules that gave people rights for example the first amendment is the freedom of speech, religion, and petition.
When the Constitution was first proposed to the 13 colonies, many colonies rejected it because it did not give them the freedoms or rights that they had demanded from the King of England. They demanded that these things be added to the Constitution before they would ratify it. To be productive and to get rid of the Articles of Confederation (the quickly drawn precursor to the Constitution), the Constitution was accepted on the condition that several amendments be attached shortly thereafter. Thus the Constitution was adopted on September 17, 1787 and the first 10 amendments were adopted on August 21, 1789, which later became collectively known as the Bill of Rights. In summary, the writers of the Constitution made sure amendments could be added as it was the only way to quickly get the Constitution ratified.
The first 10 amendments to the US Constitution is called the Bill of Rights. They were adopted at roughly the same time and all deal with the rights of individuals, or of the states, against the power of the Federal Government.
It's the first ten amendments. James Madison and the Federalists insisted on its creation in order to ratify the constitution
No. When the Constitution was written it contained almost nothing that guaranteed any rights to the citizenry. Several colonies refused to ratify the Constitution until it did, so the first ten amendments were added.
