Madison and Hamilton, along with other framers, drafted an entirely new constitution due to the inadequacies of the Articles of Confederation. The Articles failed to provide a strong central government, which resulted in issues like economic instability, inability to raise revenue, and challenges in maintaining order and unity among the states. They aimed to create a more effective federal system that balanced power between national and state governments while ensuring checks and balances to prevent tyranny. Their work culminated in the U.S. Constitution, which established a framework for a stronger, more cohesive national government.
