It was because James Madison wanted to make a bill of rights and the legislaters put it in the Constitution to reflect the rights of the people.
Bill of Rights
To guarantee that the national government would not violate the rights of the people
The first 10 amendments to the constitution known as "the bill of rights"
Yes it was. The Constitution was written and then the Bill of Rights was added as sort of a compramise between the Federalists and Anti-Federalsits. Many said that the original Constitution did not protect the people's natural rights, so the Bill of Rights was added to it.
Antifederalists
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.
