While the speech was formally addressed to Washington (VA), the Convention's president, its purpose was to convince the three delegates who had announced their refusal to sign the Constitution—Gerry (MA), Randolph (VA), and Mason (VA)—to abandon their opposition. Franklin began on a note of humility.
The Constitutional Convention and Benjamin Franklin's speech offer opportunity for reflection on institutional decision-making and the notion that individuals develop an art for doubting their own infallibility in order to fully appreciate the contributions of others on their team and to pursue action in support of the ...

Franklin argued for American liberty abroad and at home. He was appointed as the first Postmaster General by the Continental Congress. He was both a signer of the Declaration of Independence and a signer of the United States Constitution.
His most important contributions were his spirit of pragmatic compromise and strong desire for unity. He drew on both to play a significant role in brokering the “Great Compromise”—a legislature of two houses, one elected in proportion to population and one in which each state would have equal representation.

For example: In 1920, Suffragettes succeeding in winning the right for women to vote (U. S. Const. amend. XIX).
Franklin praised the work of his fellow delegates and urged them to sign the new Constitution—asking anyone “who may still have Objections” to “on this Occasion doubt a little of his own Infallibility.” Later that day, 39 delegates signed the new Constitution.
