Question

This is a true or false question The Antifederalists didn't want to have a strong central government but also didn't want to ratify the constitution

Answer 1

True.

The Anti-Federalists opposed the ratification of the 1787 U.S. Constitution because they feared that the new national government would be too powerful and thus threaten individual liberties, given the absence of a bill of rights.

Answer 2

Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

Anti-Federalists as the term implies did not want a strong Federal/Central government. They believed that a strong central government might abuse the rights of citizens and states the same way the British had and so they did not want to ratify the Constitution.

Their opposition was what led to a compromise that saw the Bill of Rights included in the Constitution to ensure that the government does not mistreat her people.
