Tia Bradley · Answer 1

To criticize features of the government proposed by the constitution.

Explanation:

There were three things that characterized the anti-federalists.

1. They supported a weak central (national) government, as had been created in the articles of confederation.

2. They wanted strong state governments.

3. They supported adding a bill of rights to the constitution.

The only answer that does not contradict any of these is A. The government being proposed by the constitution would make it much stronger than under the Articles of Confederation.
