Is there a picture to go with this question?
The rule of law was incredibly essential in the creation of the American legal, political, and government systems, in that without the law all of these would crumble.
I'm a bit rusty on this portion of history, sorry, but I believe the answer you're looking for is because George Washington wasn't in Philadelphia at the time of the signing. He was a general in the army and during the time of the signing, he was defending the country in another part of colonies.
Hope this helps!
