    The correct answer is D) to allow the national government to efficiently run the country.

    The Federalists wanted to include this clause in the Constitution to allow the national government to efficiently run the country.

    Let's remember that the Federalists, led by John Jay, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton, supported the idea of a strong central government to rule the United States. They always faced the opposition of Antifederalists like Thomas Jefferson who believed that a strong central government was dangerous and could easily turn into a tyranny. That is why Antifederalists supported the inclusion of a Bill of Rights in the Constitution.
