Answer 1

The correct answer is - a. Oppose ratifying the Constitution

Anti-Federalism refers to a movement which opposed the creation of a strong US federal government. The Anti-Federalists were concerned that the position of the president may evolve into a monarchy. They believed that the national government would be unresponsive to the needs of the localities as it would be too far away from the people. They opposed the ratification of the 1787 Constitution. Their influence helped in the passage of the United States Bill of Rights.
