For whom did those who ratified the U. S. Constitution claim to speak, and on what authority did they make that claim? *

Those who ratified the US Constitution claimed to speak for the people of their state. They had this authority because they were designated by the people as representatives, either because of their position within the state or because of their active participation within the policies established in each region.

Explanation:

The creation of the US constitution was done to provide better government for the American people. All those involved in the creation and ratification of this constitution were representatives of the people of their states and had an obligation and responsibility to speak on behalf of that people and decide on behalf of that people.

This authority was given by the people themselves and among the representatives among themselves, in relation to the social position they occupied and the relevance in relation to the government policies established in the region.

dramatic irony occurs when the reader/audience knows more about a character's situation than the character does. the one main effect is that it gives the reader a sense of superiority, or detached superiority. the reader not only seemingly discovers what is revealed, but feels superior for doing so.
