George Mason and Patrick Henry were both prominent figures in the American Revolution and key advocates for individual liberties and rights. They were instrumental in the push for the inclusion of a Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution, emphasizing the importance of protecting personal freedoms. Additionally, both were influential Virginia statesmen who opposed British rule and played significant roles in shaping early American political thought. Their shared commitment to liberty and limited government made them crucial voices in the founding of the United States.
