Explanation: All of the names provided are considered important figures that contributed to build what we know today as the United States. The Constitutional Convention of 1787 took place in the city of Philadelphia and it had George Washington as president. Benjamin Franklin was also one of the  leaders of this convention. However, Patrick Henry, who had strongly fought to achieve independence, refused to attend the Constitutional Convention as he was against establishing a strong central government. Another important figure that was absent was Thomas Jefferson as, in that time, he was in France working as foreign minister. On the other hand, James Madison did attend the convention. He actually wrote notes about the convention. Furthermore, one of the compromises reached during the Constitutional Convention is that a black slave would be counted in each state as three fifths of a person.  

this act gave the federal government the power to relocate any native in the east to territory west of the mississippi river.
