The Great Compromise...
James Madison and William Paterson discuss how to fix the United States Government. Each have an idea but one favors small states and the other large states. Roger Sherman then rescued the two by coming up with the Great Compromise.
The Constitutional Convention in 15 Minutes...
Mr. Hughes explains the compromises which were brokered at the Constitutional Convention in 1787. Topics for discussion include the Connecticut Compromise (Great), the 3/5th's Compromise and the Anti-Feds demands for a Bill of Rights. Thank you Mr. Hughes!
Totally Off Topic...
The following video features a song written by John Prine entitled, The Great Compromise. Written in 1972, this protest song is a metaphor for Prine's disillusionment of his country during the Vietnam War. In this instance the songwriter is using the word "compromise" to mean a dishonorable or shameful concession.
