Answer:

C. He was an Anti-Federalist and opposed the Constitution.

Explanation:

Patrick Henry was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States and the principal legislative leader of Virginia. He was a skilled speaker and significant figure in the American Revolution. His energizing discourses started up America's battle for independence. An Anti-Federalist, Henry opposed the ratification of the U.S. Constitution, which he felt put a lot of power in the hands of a national government. His influence made the Bill of Rights, which ensured personal freedoms and set points of confinement on the administration's power.

Further Explanations:

Patrick Henry an orator and attorney of the United State was known for his pronouncement in the “Second Virginia Convention” of 1775. Being the “Founding Father” he assisted as the 5th and 6th governor of Virginia after American’s Independence. Henry became a barrister through self-study and began his legal practice in 1760. Soon he gained fame through his success in the Parson’s case against Anglican Clergy. Later he was elected for the “House of Burgesses” and there also he protested against the Stamp Act of 1765 and became prominent. In 1744 and 1745 he aided as the delegate in the 1st and 2nd Continental Congress but failed to prove himself influential at that time.  

He was an influential orator and he proved it in his speeches that he conveyed during the American Revolution. He boosted the energy of the “Battle of Independence”. But at the time of drafting of Constitution, he opposed it on the allegation that the Constitution was not vesting full authority to the central Government. He held that the Federal administration should possess full authority over the states.
