Answer:

They looked at examples in history and in the writings of European political philosophers during the Enlightenment.

Explanation:

The American Revolution meant for the young American society a series of great intellectual and social changes, such as the new republican ideals that, debated by the "founding fathers" (politicians and intellectuals illustrated as Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams or Thomas Paine) were assimilated by the population. The main political ideas for the formation of the new government came from the European philosophers of the Enlightenment like Locke, Voltaire, and Montesquieu, that inspired the American colonist to create a new democracy. These ideals emphasized political concepts such as division of powers, freedom of property, individual rights, freedom of market, federalism, equality, and anti-monarchy. Moreover, these ideas were rooted in historical examples like the ancient Greek democracy and the Roman Republic, which were taken into account by the American founding fathers as historical and cultural inspiration.

As the issue of slavery was a burning issue for the Union, this compromise led to a backlash from the people. So, the people expressed their criticism of the 'representatives' or members of the Congress who helped in passing the controversial agreement.
