Federalism often refers to the beliefs of the Federalist party. This political party believed that the United States needed a strong federal (aka central) government in order for society to run well. This was based of several different factors including the lack of success of the Articles of Confederation (which had created a weak central government) and Shay's Rebellion.

On the other hand, people against the idea of federalism were worried that the federal government would gain too much power. Instead, they preferred for state governments to have a majority of the power. They used the American Revolution as their reasoning as to why a strong central government would not work well in America.

In-s [12.5K]

Basically, Texas has had underwater areas for as long as it has existed. When it was discovered that there were oil deposits there, the federal government wanted to take it away from Texas who was a recognize owner of the land. It was a case where the state and the federation had to fight in the supreme court. Politics changed because Texas started hating on anyone who tried to take it away so they switched their presidential support based on this.

Which of the following was NOT one of the concerns of the delegates when crafting the Constitution of the United States?

pshichka [43]

<u>C. Preserving the Articles of the Confederation</u>

Delegates deemed necessary to draft a new Constitution because of the inefficiency of the current one at the moment: The Articles of the Confederation, which had been proved to be incompetence for the times the U.S. was going through, for example it did not establish a central government strong enough who had enforcement powers to lead the nation (such as collecting taxes).

Instead, the issues that the delegates were concerned about during the process of changing the Constitution were focused on changing the old one, and a series of issues involving options A, B, and D.
