Explanation:

The Grand Debate has two parties: the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists.  

The federalists intended the Constitution to be ratified, not the anti-federalists. The incorporation of the Charter of Rights was one of the key issues which these two sides addressed.

The Federalists thought this provision was not required, because they claimed that because of the Constitution, the government may not have been limited to the people.

The anti-federalists protested that the Constitution had too much authority for the national government, and the citizens would be in danger of tyranny without even a constitution.

Both resorted to essays and articles, to reach the majority of the citizens, to debate the problems or the merits of the Constitution.

Explanation:

The question of the ratification of the Constitution was a pressing issue following the Revolutionary War. Many people had different ideas when it came to the purpose and composition of the country. While Federalists believed that a stronger federal government would benefit the country, the Anti-federalists believed that this might lead to the loss of the liberty gained during the war. The two factions resorted to essays and articles in order to reach the majority of citizens and convince them of supporting their point of view.
