*Virginia Plan:

 "If you have more people you should have more power and representatives. The small states are small, how would they use the power?"

New Jersey Plan:

  "All people should be equal no matter how small."

Virginia Plan:

  "Why should little states get more votes, voice, and reps.?"

New Jersey Plan:

  "Shouldn’t votes and reps. be equal for all states, because it’s the united states not the United People."

Virginia Plan:

  "We have more people so we should have more Representatives and power."

New Jersey Plan:

  "You are not really bigger, you just have more slaves."

 Virginia Plan:

  "Slaves are people too."

New Jersey Plan:

  "But they do not treat slaves as people, they treat them as 3/5th’s of a person."

Virginia Plan:

  "Reps. should be based on population."

New Jersey Plan:

"No"

Virginia Plan:

"Yes"

New Jersey Plan:

"No"

Virginia Plan:

"Yes"

Roger Sherman:

"We should just make one Giant Thing to have both of you right.  We should call it the Great Compromise.  We will have a Senate, where all states have two reps. and a House where the number of Reps. is based on Population.  Then we will all be happy."
