Extract

In 1781, Revolutionary leaders had the task not gaining freedom, as that to them had already been accomplished, but of establishing a government which would preserve it. In doing so, these leaders remained wholly faithful to their ideology. They used the means of the Revolution in establishing the Articles of Confederation, which became the blueprint for the Constitution.
By 1783 the revolutionaries,with the help of other British enemies, won the war of Independence. Revolutionary heroes were forced to do in 1787 what they had already done in 1781--establish a government which would be protective of the rights of the people and be faithful to the ideology of the revolution. The Constitution of the United States emerged at the Federal Convention which provided for an elected Congress and a national court system controlled by an almighty supreme court.
