James Madison believed that the government under the Articles of Confederation was too weak to maintain order and effectively govern. He criticized its lack of a strong central authority, which led to issues such as economic instability, interstate conflict, and an inability to raise revenue or enforce laws. Madison argued that the absence of a robust federal government hindered the nation's ability to respond to challenges and protect its interests, ultimately prompting the call for a Constitutional Convention.
