Jared Ingersoll
Jared Ingersoll (October 24, 1749 – October 31, 1822) was an early American lawyer and statesman from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
He was a delegate of Pennsylvania to the Continental Congress and signer of the U.S. Constitution. Ingersoll also served as Pennsylvania state attorney general, 1791–1800 and 1811–1816 and as the United States Attorney for Pennsylvania, 1800–1801.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jared Ingersoll (1749–1822) )〕
He joined DeWitt Clinton on the Democratic-Republican Party ticket in the 1812 election, but was defeated by James Madison and Elbridge Gerry.
==Life and career==
Jared Ingersoll was a supporter of the Revolutionary cause. His training as a lawyer convinced him that the problems of the newly independent states were caused by the inadequacy of the Articles of Confederation. He became an early and ardent proponent of constitutional reform, although, like a number of his colleagues at the Constitutional Convention, he believed this reform could be achieved by a simple revision of the Articles. Only after weeks of debate did he come to see that a new document was necessary.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jared Ingersoll – Pennsylvania )〕 Ironically, his major contribution to the cause of constitutional government came not during the Convention, but later during a lengthy and distinguished legal career when he helped define many of the principles enunciated at Philadelphia.
