Rhode Island sent no delegates, for a couple of reasons: Rhode Island feared the increase in federal tariffs that a new Constitution would entail. As a maritime state, they would have been hit especially hard by a tariff. (In fact, a few years earlier, Rhode Island's lone veto of such a tariff by Congress had kept one from being implemented.) Rhode Island's government had just recently (1786) been taken over by the "Country Party".
This "populist" group, devoted to the concerns of the state's debtors & farmers, had used the heavy printing of paper currency to help their constituency. (Hard currency & low inflation helps creditors; soft money and high inflation generally helps creditors.) Such struggles were, in fact, going on in several states (Shays' Rebellion in Massachusetts was one example), and concern over them was a significant factor prompting leaders (many of them also investors) to push for a Constitutional Convention by which they might strengthen the central government, giving it powers to limit these excesses in the individual states (and the ability of local groups to agitate for them), including the ability to print their own money.
The names of several prominent Founders are notable for their not having participated in the Constitutional Convention. Thomas Jefferson was abroad, serving as the minister to France (nonetheless, Jefferson, in a letter to John Adams, would describe the delegates approvingly as a gathering of “demi-gods”). 82 John Adams was in Britain, serving as minister to that country, but he wrote home to encourage the delegates.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
