When the Founding Fathers were writing our Constitution, they were worried that the _______ of the people were not protected. They wanted to be sure that the _______ government could not take away people’s rights like the British had done before the American Revolution. They added the Bill of Rights to protect the citizens of the US.

Answer choices

A. laws ... foreign
B. responsibilities ... national
C. rights ... foreign
D. rights ... national

Answer 1

Answer: D rights...national.

Explanation: Well the constitution defines the fundamental law of the U.S. federal government, setting forth the three principal branches of the federal government and outlining their jurisdictions.

One of the goals while making the constitution was to make sure the government does not take away the rights of the people.

Therefore, we already declared independence from Britain so a foreign government can't be involved and the national government would be involved.

So, therefore, the answer is D.
