Not all of the framers of the Constitution were in agreement about the convention or its outcomes. While many prominent figures, such as George Washington and James Madison, supported the need for a stronger federal government and attended the convention, others, like Patrick Henry, were opposed to it. The debates at the convention highlighted significant divisions over issues such as representation and federal authority, ultimately leading to compromises that shaped the final document. Thus, while there was a common goal of improving governance, consensus on methods and principles was not universally shared.
