The USC (US Constitution) had a better system of gov't.
Legislative, Executive, and Judicial branch.
By the way it's Jordyn Burke
The US Constitution has a system of checks and balances that keeps all the branches in order
I agree with Jordyn. The US Constitution was also better because it divided the power.
I think that the power shouldn't be all put one one person. Creating the Constitution was a good idea so that in the future (now) if the president wanted to do something then he would be able to and cause of the Constitution things must be seconded.

The Constitution was better than the Articles of Confederation, because the Articles of Confederation had many weaknesses. The Federal Government created by the Constitution is strong and powerful. Both documents were made in the late 1700's.
I agree with both people also
I believe that the Constitution is indeed better that the Articles of Confederation b/c the Constitution is more of a radical/democratic movement that unified and benefited the country and not just a single state.
the articles of confederation created a government that gave the states to much power and the u.s constitution created federalism, dividing the power between the states and the central government.
this is mine ^ jack gonzalez
The Constitution of the United States created a form of government known as federalism. The Constitution made the agreement and any laws passed under the Constitution, the supreme law of the land. Three separate branches were created, the legislative, executive, and judicial. Each branch had specific powers while also having the ability to check the powers of the other two branches.
The constitution created a much stronger government than the one created by the articles of confederation. The constitution divides the power between the states and the central government to make sure the parts of the federal gov't. we'rent too strong. Where as the articles of confederation created a gov't. that gave the states too much power. It created a confederation of ind. states, not a nation.
The Constitution is a better form because it gives equal rights to the states and created 3 branches of government

Ok
The us constitution had a more organized form of government separated into three branches. The Judicial ,executive, and lgeslative branches of government.
The US Constitution is a better form of government than the Articles of Confederation because the Constitution created an equal government for the US. It split the power into 3 equal branches; judicial, legislative and executive. It also created the form of government called federalism which was a step to making the US government more equal. Overall, the US Constitution is a better form of government than the Articles of Confederation.
The U.S. Constitution was a better form of government because the articles of confederation gave the states too much power.the constitution created federalism that divided the power between the states and the central government
The constitution gave more power to the people and split it up between the States and the Federal Government.
The Constitution was better than the Articles of Confederation, because the Articles of Confederation had many weaknesses. The Articles of Confederation created a government that gave the states too much power. The Constitution created a government that's stronger than the one created by the Articles of Confederation. The Constitution created federalism, that divided the power between the states and the central government. To make sure the parts of the Federal Government weren't to strong. The Constitution created 3 branches with checks and balances
The U.S. Constitution was better than the Articles of Confederation because it had one congress with to subdivisions(House of Representative and the The Senate) balancing the power evenly, a luxury the the Articles of Confederation did not have.
The Articles of Confederation created a confederation of independent states not a nation. Under The Constitution the balance of power shifted to the federal government.
The constitution was better because of the government was divided into three branches legislative, judicial, and executive. This was for no one could have too much power.
I believe that the US constitution is better than the Articles of Confederation because the government had more control over the people. It had the legislative, judicial, and it had the executive branch. It was like a system of checks and balances between them. None of them had more power than the other. Each of them checked one another. It had more equal rights than the Articles of Confederation.
