How did the federalist papers defend the changes and how did Patrick Henry oppose them?

Question

compare the and contrast the Articles of Confederation and the United States States constition

Answer 1

What you are asking is too large of a question to be answered here. For example the Federalist Papers (written by Hamilton , Madison, and Jay) are composed of 84 separated papers.

Patrick Henry was only one of a number of individuals who spoke against the Constitution others included such as Mason, Gerry, Pinckney, Randoluph, as well as many others (re: Anti Federalist Papers).

Your previous questions seem to address this same subject with the same open ended nature. You are receiving almost no responses.

I suggest that you narrow your question to a single issue.

For example, just the subject of “Judicial Review” is addressed by seven papers within The Federalist Papers and within the Anti-Federalist Papers there are far more references. I suspect that you are attempting to gain information for some school assignment. If the assignment was expressed as general as you have defined it in your question be prepared to write a book with a minimum of several weeks studying in preparation.

Toward that end I suggest the following references as a very few of the many which exist.
