Description
In episode nineteen, we will examine the fight and the procedures utilized for the ratification of the Constitution of the United States. Often treated by historians as little more than a postscript in the process, it did in fact represent, in itself, a great epoch in American political thought and development. The debate and votes which lasted a bit less than a year were thorough, egalitarian, passionate, thoughtful, and non-violent. In addition to ratification it also planted the seeds for the first political parties.
