if everyone knew it why did no one want to amend the Articles?? And why was there huge fight over radification? Did Patrick Henry matter?everyone who mattered and cared about the nation's enduring sovereignty, not just liberals, knew it; thus they were trashed.
Why do policies that we all know should today be implemented not get implemented? The same forces that today impede implementation of myriad policies and statutes -- money and influence -- were at work then. All that differs is the specific policies, not how money and influence combine to produce inactivity or greatly watered down legislative action(s).why did no one want to amend the Articles??
Times have changed, but the human condition and its manifestations have not. Consequently it was no less difficult then to overcome the "worst" elements of the human condition than it is now.
