Abstract
Following the Revolution, drastic measures needed to be taken to insure America's survival and success if it was to truly become a rich and orderly nation after departure from British rule. The Articles of Confederation had been formulated and processed, yet proved not wholly productive, efficient, or plausibly functional. They lacked certain key elements which were essential to the growth and maturity of a nation still in its infancy. Major dampers in its success lay foremost in its inability to provide Congress with stronger powers, most importantly, the provision to tax the states directly. At the first national convention, respected government and social leaders joined together in an attempt to resolve the issues hindering America's growth. What began as a call for discussion ultimately resulted in the drafting of the US Constitution, which would lay the foundation for the nation's future, allow the "Hercules in the cradle" to finally take its first steps towards republic liberty, unification, and national power.
