Americans understood their brave new type of government needed validation and the same kind of tyrannical state they had fought to overthrow could not become a part of the new country. The need for states to listen and respond to the needs of citizens and to avoid another Shayâ??s rebellion. Despite fiery rhetoric addressing the importance of liberty, the United States was a slave holding country with no intention of giving up its slaves. And the best way to address liberty while still remaining a slave owning nation was a conundrum.
