Most Weredriven More By Pragmatic, Regional Interests Than By Idealistic Vision.Many Were Meeting For The First Time, Others After Years Of Contention,And The Inevitable Clash Of Personalities Would Be As Intense As Theadvocacy Of Ideas Or Ideals. No Issue Was Of Greater Concern To Thedelegates Than That Of Slavery: It Resounded Through Debates On Thedefinition Of Treason, The Disposition Of The Rich Lands West Of Thealleghenies And The Admission Of New States, Representation Andtaxation, The Need For A National Census, And The Very Makeup Of Thelegislative And Executive Branches Of The New Government.
