John Rutledge was a Federalist.
John Rutledge, a prominent American statesman and a delegate at the Constitutional Convention, held pro-slavery views. He believed that slavery was essential for the economic prosperity of the Southern states and advocated for its protection in the Constitution. Rutledge argued that slavery was a "positive good" and expressed strong opposition to any measures that would limit or abolish the institution. His stance reflected the prevailing attitudes of many Southern leaders during that era.
He signed it in Philadelphia in 1787.
The two men most responsible for the calling of the Constitutional Convention, after the failed Annapolis Convention of 1786, were Alexander Hamilton (from New York), and James Madison (from Virginia). They also wrote most of the Federalist Papers, and in 1787, they were a formidable team when it came to the Constitution.
I don't think he had an opinion; John Rutledge's father died when Rutledge was about eleven years old.
John Dickinson was the president at the Annapolis Convention. At this convention John Dickinson represented the state of Delaware, where he lived.
John Rutledge had five children with his wife, Mary. Their names were John Rutledge Jr., Edward Rutledge, Sarah Rutledge, Mary Rutledge, and Caroline Rutledge.

Although he was a prominent figure in the American Revolution and served as President of the Continental Congress, he was not present at the convention, which aimed to address issues of trade and commerce among the states. Instead, Hancock was focused on his duties as governor of Massachusetts during that time.
John Rutledge was not in favor of the Great Compromise during the Constitutional Convention of 1787. He advocated for proportional representation based on population, which aligned with the interests of larger states. Rutledge's views reflected the desire for a stronger national government, but he ultimately accepted the compromise as necessary for the ratification of the Constitution.
