Amendments
Bill of Rights
Some states or people (like Virginia's Patrick Henry) thought that the Constitution did not adequately protect individual citizens' rights. Therefore, a Bill of Rights was added so more states would ratify the Constitution, and the American people were afforded more protection than with the Constitution alone. The Bill of Rights added a significant number of rights and privileges not given to citizens under the Constitution alone.
There has been 27 amendments added to the constitution
The delegates to the state ratifying convention said they would be more willing to agree to the Constitution if a list of fights was added to it. So supporters of the Constitution promised that after it was ratified, a bill of rights would be added.
The Bill of Rights was added, but it wasn't for the approval of the population since they had no say. It was for the delegates who wanted it.
The ratification wasn’t decided by the “people “ but by congress.
