I wish I had been at the VA ratifying convention on 2 June to see Patrick Henry get slapped down.
He contested the legitimacy of the Constitutional convention. It got nowhere. He was politely told to sit down and shut up.

Of course he was correct on that as well.

Patrick Henry’s two speeches at the Virginia Ratifying Convention will be covered by us around Christmas. It will receive the same respectful treatment as the Federalist and other anti-Federalist writers.
