Interesting. This is what the Virginia delegates had to say about ratification:

“We, the Delegates of the people of Virginia Do, in the name and behalf of the people of Virginia, declare and make known, that the powers granted under the Constitution, being derived from the people of the United States, may be resumed by them whensover the same shall be perverted to their injury or oppression and that every power granted thereby remains with them and at their will.”
