by Martin Kelly. Updated April 03, 2017. The US Constitution has been called a bundle of compromises due to the fact that the delegates to the Constitutional Convention in 1787 had to compromise on numerous key points in order to create a new Constitution that was acceptable to each of the states.
Among the men who created the Constitution in Philadelphia during the summer of 1787, Roger Sherman, a Superior Court Judge, is remembered as the architect of the Connecticut Compromise. When the Constitutional Convention became deadlocked over the matter of legislative voting, Sherman proposed a system similar to one he had advocated previously as a delegate to the Continental Congress in 1776.
