William Richardson Davie, was among those who did not believe the Articles of Confederation went far enough to outline the duties of each branch of the government. He believed such things as the method of selecting senators could lead to representatives voting along lines of prejudice might prevail, and as with the Articles of Confederation, there would be no immediate solution.
The workings of the Constitutional Convention, which included the Virginia Plan, New Jersey Plan, and the Connetticut Comprimise. The workings of the Constitutional Convention, which included the Virginia Plan, New Jersey Plan, and the Conneticut Comprimise.
The Articles of Confederation created only a legislative branch of government as to prevent Congress from gaining full control. Their method of doing this was creating a "firm league of friendship" rather than a strong central government and allowing states to retain the most power. In doing so, however, many feared that some states would retain too much power and dominate others in the national government. The Articles of Confederation dealt with these fears by giving each state only one vote regardless of its population and ordaining that on important issues, nine states would have to agree in order to come to a solution.
The Articles were designed to meet the requirements of the Revolutionary War, which they did. The states at that time were highly independent and wished to preserve for themselves more power in deciding state issues.The AofC is a short document. Read it. In its succinctness it shows that the Founders had only a temporary solution in mind for government. The Constitution is the next step in their government creation.
Some of the reasons that the Framers changed the Articles of Confederation are that:It did not provide for a Executive branch on the national level.It did not provide for a Judicial branch on the national level.There was no national army. What there was had to be requested from the states.General welfare was not provided for by the government.There was no bill of rights.
