The U.S. Constitution

The constitution established a basic form of laws for the country. It created three branches of government; legislative, executive and judicial.

The legislative branch makes law, declares war, impeaches and approves judges.

The executive branch can veto bills, carry out laws and sign bills into law.

The judicial branch upholds the laws and settles disputes about the law, says that laws are unconstitutional and the judges serve for life.

The three branches have a check and balance system that keep them from having too much power.

James Madison - The Father of the Constitution

James Madison is considered the Father of the Constitution

He studied ancient democracies to find out about how other republics and governments worked and how many of them failed.

He thought there should be one central government called a Federal Government and that there should be 3 branches in that government:

Legislative

Executive

Judicial

In these branches no person would have more power. It was a way of balancing the government.

In the Articles of the Confederation there was no cental power and the sates could write their own laws and do as they wanted. Under a central government it would make a set of laws that would control the other governments

THe constitutional convention of 1787 was to make a basic form of laws that would govern the people and the states

Madison showed how the Delaration only gave power to elect congress, which only had two powers to declare war and declare peace. There was not and central government and that they had no powers over the states.

The Constitution would set up laws that and how new laws were to be made. The delegates from each state helped in the wording of the Constitution and with the three branches it was a way to have a system that would not let a branch have too much power like a king.
