CH 2 Post-test (PS 103)Antifederalists' concerns about the Constitution

protected civil liberties.
c. were that it did not go far enough to strengthen the central government.
d. were based on their opposition to the Bill of Rights. - correct answer ✔b.
included a concern that the Constitution did not specifically enumerate
protected civil liberties.
Antifederalists favored limiting and enumerating the powers granted to the
national government in relation both to the states and to the people at large,
and thus demanded that a bill of rights be added to the Constitution to place
limits on the government's exercise of power over the citizenry.
As a political value, individual liberty
Select one:
a. ranked behind equality in the minds of the Constitution's framers.
b. became less important once ratification became certain.
c. was preeminent for the Constitution's authors.
, d. was coequal with equality and democracy when examining the Constitution
at the Founding. - correct answer ✔c. was preeminent for the Constitution's
authors.
The Constitution's framers placed individual liberty ahead of all other political
values, a concern that led many of the framers to distrust both democracy and
equality and to fear the development of majority tyranny.
Changing the structure or composition of the federal government
Select one:
a. has been largely unaddressed by the constitutional amendments since the
Bill of Rights.
b. was not done by any of the amendments ratified after the Founding.
c. has been the motivating factor behind most of the post-Bill of Rights
amendments.
d. has been impossible due to Article V of the Constitution. - correct answer
✔c. has been the motivating factor behind most of the post-Bill of Rights
amendments.

of "constitution" as the makeup or composition of something.

Antifederalists
Select one:
a. ended after the ratification of the Constitution.
