The representatives intent was to revise the Articles of Confederation. Certain representatives such as James Madison and Alexander Hamilton were critics of the Articles of Confederation. They felt as though it was necessary just to create a new government rather than try to fix the problems of the Articles of Confederation. In the end, the Constitutional Convention resulted in the creation of the Constitution of the United States.
