Answer 1

Bill of Rights

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the purposes of government is to protect the rights and liberties of the individual. The U.S. Constitution had been constructed in such a way as to provide safeguards for individuals. You have seen from your reading of the Constitution that the rights of the individual are protected through the structure of the government, through the separation of powers among the branches of the government, through representative government, and through many other provisions. For example, individuals could not be accused of treason without two or more eyewitnesses. Individuals were not to be denied the due process of law if they were arrested.

Even with these safeguards in place, many people were not convinced that the government could be trusted. Unscrupulous men could get into positions of power and make life miserable for individuals. Therefore, many people demanded that a bill of rights, such as those attached to many state constitutions, be added to the Constitution.

Answer 2

Bill of Rights

Step-by-step explanation:

The Bill of Rights is a list of ten individual rights or amendments that were listed. These were a person's individual rights. Some citizens were afraid that a person's individual rights were going to be violated again and lead to a tyranny. So, the Bill of Rights was created to protect citizens' rights from being violated by the government.
