Best Answer

There was a need for the new Constitution because the Articles Of Confederation were not enough to suffice the new nation. They lacked a Bill of Rights and weakened the new, unmatured America. The Constitution added the Bill of Rights and gave citizens basic freedoms, such as freedom of speech, freedom of religion, etc.
