Ep. 236 | GianCarlo Canaparo | The Bill of Rights: How It Came About and the Debates That Shaped It

It's 1787. Under the current Articles of Confederation the American experiment is struggling. James Madison knew a new guiding document was needed. Once opposed to a Bill of Rights, it was Madison who would ultimately introduce the Bill of Rights in 1789. Why was Madison originally opposed to a Bill of Rights? What documents influenced him? Why were the Bill of Rights necessary and what were the criticisms of the Constitution before the Bill of Rights? Discussing this momentous event in history with our student panel, we are happy to welcome GianCarlo Canaparo, senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation.
