Topic for the paper: Read The Summer of 1787 and respond to the following in 4-6 pages: What were the most prominent ideas that influenced the writers of the Constitution? What were the most significant compromises made and why were these agreements made? Do you believe that the delegates should have made the compromises that they did? Did these compromises create unity, or did they split the country in key ways? How does the Constitution continue to be debated in the present day? Find one current issue that demonstrates the ongoing debate on how to interpret the Constitution and explain the ongoing relevance of the U.S. Constitution.
