Excerpt from Timely Topics
Thus Madison, as we read, just before the Convention adjourned wrote to Jefferson: I hazard an opinion that the plan, should it be adopted, will not effectively answer its national Object, and yet, as his biographer adds, he saw, in looking at it as a whole, how just and true it was in its fair proportions. From that time he gave himself heartily to its adoption, believing that upon its adoption, despite its imperfections, depended whether there should be, or should not be, a nation.
