Yes, agree because if they were to tell everyone, which yeah some more people might help after hearing it but at the same time, people that don't want to will tell the British and then they'll know somethings up.

∙ 9y agoI don't necessarily agree with the secrecy the delegates agreed on at the Constitutional Convention, but I can see why they may have thought it necessary. Once the convention was over, a lot of what went on and what was said was revealed anyway. If I had to vote on it, I'd vote for no secrecy.

The convention issued a declaration in which it attempted to justify its decision. Drawing on arguments developed by John C.
