Answer 1

C.He stated that it was the beginning of a new era.

Answer 2

He stated that it was the beginning of a new era.

Step-by-step explanation:

Benjamin believed that the constitution was a new beginning and a necessary one, even though he did not think that the constitution was perfect. It is clear though, that being ruled under the constitution was, in his opinion, a huge improvement:

“I agree to this Constitution with all its faults, if they are such, because I think a central government is necessary for us… I doubt too whether any other Convention we can obtain may be able to make a better Constitution.”
