Edmund Randolph
Edmund Randolph was an American statesman and a key figure at the Constitutional Convention of 1787. As a delegate, he proposed the Virginia Plan, which advocated for a strong national government. Randolph was wary of excessive executive power, famously arguing against a unitary executive, fearing it could lead to a monarchy, and ultimately refused to sign the Constitution over concerns about its implications for democratic governance.
