Chapter 8 Essay - Speech -

There are many problems with the nation we have today men! There are slaves, counted as property by some! There are states scared to take the first step towards a decent democracy, afraid that the bigger states will have more power! We have the Tax issue that started from King George III! We need to do something people! Something that changes the way of  leadership without starting another war, and for all of it to be kept a secret.

Today, May 25th, 1787, I stand before you all, together we will try to create a new nation, one based on not money, but equality. We will try to help slaves be counted as a person and not as property! We will succeed, even if it take a few fails, we have Benjamin Franklin, one of the wisest. Not all of us agree with one another but we’ll hear every word you say, every point you have! We will find a way to represent the states equally, and not have one with all the power.

We shall focus on the fact that states don’t have representation! States such as North Carolina and Rhode Island are afraid of being part of creating a new nation! They became hesitant when it came to signing the constitution. They didn’t want change afraid that the change would actually have a worse result. We shall find a way to get every agreement as we possibly can men! We are created equal!

Men, we came together to create a better future for those generations ahead of us. We  want a better place for our children to be raised, for us to grow old, and to have freedom. We discuss everything that needs discussing but we will do it in secret, nothing must be leaked to the press or to the non-delegates.  Please men, in your hands lie the future of thousands of people.
