Describe the process of the ratification. What was the purpose of the Constitutional Convention throughout that process?
The ratification process started when the Congress turned the Constitution over to the state legislatures for consideration through specially elected state conventions of the people.
In September 1786, at the Annapolis Convention, delegates from five states called for a Constitutional Convention in order to discuss possible improvements to the Articles of Confederation. The Constitutional Convention took place in Philadelphia on May 14, 1787.
Through the "FUGITIVE CLAUSE," for example, governments of free states were required to help recapture runaway slaves who had escaped their masters' states. http://www.ushistory.org/us/15d.asp
