5. Which is NOT a reason the anti-federalists want a Bill of Rights added to the Constitution?) A. to guarantee rights to citize
icang [17]

<em>C. To say that the rights listed are the only rights citizens have.</em>

Explanation:

The Anti-Federalists wanted to have a weak government, as they felt like having a strong government would result in an abuse of power. They often associated having a strong government with British tyranny.

The Articles of Confederation was the United States' first constitution. It was very weak and gave little to no power to the federal government. The government could not tax the states, enforce laws properly, regulate trade, draft soldiers, etc. The Anti-Federalists agreed with this, but the Federalists wanted to amend the Articles and thought having a strong government meant having a strong country.

Eventually, the Articles of Confederation was going to get reworked during the Constitutional Convention of 1787, but it ended up getting scrapped and the United States Constitution was created instead. The Anti-Federalists did not agree with this and wanted to have a Bill of Rights to protect the citizens from the power of the government.

The Federalists deemed the Bill of Rights unnecessary but wanted to please the Anti-Federalists, so the Bill of Rights was created. It guaranteed the rights of the citizens and protected the rights of the states from the federal government. It also set up the rules for due process, which is respecting the legal rights of citizens and not abusing power.

The Anti-Federalists did not say anything about that the rights listed are the only ones that the citizens have. The Bill of Rights gives all of the power to the citizens that are not otherwise stated to go to the federal government.

What was the relationship between the Senate and the magistrates in the Roman Republic?
Reil [10]

Answer:

Correct answer is answer C, Magistrates could appoint Senators.  

Explanation:

Magistrates <em>appointed </em>Senators.  Senators were elected by <u>Consuls, Tribunes and Censors</u>.  But <u>Magistrates could select Senators </u>that, as in the case of an election by Censor, did not have the right to vote.  <em>Even though Senators could have been appointed by Magistrates </em>(answer C), <em>those did not have the power to elect them</em> (answer D)

Senators were a deliberative organ, while Magistrates were a legislative organ.  This means that Magistrates<u> created law</u>, and Senators were a political authority in the <u>representation of the whole Roman Empire</u>, having the power to move the military into war or construct new infrastructure. Therefore, this explanation indicates that <em>Senators did not rule over</em> the Magistrates (answer A) or <em>adviced the Magistrates</em> (answer B).
