The Federalist Papers

Explanation:

The Federalist Papers were a series of 85 essays written to defend the US Constitution written by Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison. They wanted a stronger national government in opposition to a weaker central government favored by the Anti-Federalists. The Articles of Confederation showed how the US needed a more hands-on federal government which made it easier to get the Constitution ratified.
