Why would we depend on a Constitution to direct the people, if the people who are writing it have no idea of what it is like to live in our situation and because of that don't know what we need or even how we could better ourselves. The Constitution doesn't get rid of chaos it only changes who causes it.
The constitution is only a tactic for the federal government to give themselves more power and money. Under the Constitution states will have no say in what happens to them, instead, we will have to obey every command the national government gives us. Furthermore, our issues are local, so one can't expect a government consisting only of rich elites to be able to represent the needs and interests of the bulk of the population accurately. In order to feel protected from the tyranny of the federal government, we demand the ratification of a bill of rights that protects the citizen.
