Pennsylvania Ratification

Hey everybody,

This is my new blog.  It's December 12, 1787, and Pennsylvania just ratified the constitution!  Everyone  in PA are so excited that we ratified it.  This is something we have been working towards for a while, which is why we were the second state to ratify this new constitution (Delaware was first).  I am starting this blog to discuss the matters that have risen from this entire ordeal:  Federalism, the Constitutional Convention, and how this constitution is going to affect MY great state of Pennsylvania.

So folks, I am Thomas Mifflin, born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.  I was a general in the Continental Army, President of the Continental Congress, a delagate at the Constitutional Convention, and a firm Federalist who believes in a strong, central government.
And that's how the cookie crumbles.
