"[The] Constitution, which, by the undefined meaning of some parts, and the ambiguities of expression in others, is dangerously

adapted to the purposes of an immediate aristocratic tyranny; that...from the difficulty, if not impracticability of its operation, must soon terminate in the most uncontrolled despotism...[1.]...[The] best political writers have supported the principles of annual elections...2. There is no security in the proffered system, either for the rights of conscience, or liberty of the press. 3. There are no well-defined limits of the Judiciary Powers...4. The Executive and Legislative are dangerously blended as to give just cause of alarm...9. There is no provision for a rotation, nor any thing to prevent the perpetuity of office in the same hands for life...14. There is no provision by a bill of rights to guard against the dangerous encroachments of power...15. The...impracticability, of exercising the equal and equitable powers of government by a single legislature over an extent of territory that reaches from Mississippi to the...Atlantic ocean...And it is to be feared we shall soon see this country rushing into the extremes of confusion and violence, in consequence of the proceedings of a set of gentlemen, who disregarding the purposes of their appointment, have assumed powers unauthorized by any commission, have unnecessarily rejected the confederation of the United States, and annihilated the sovereignty and independence of the individual governments."

Answer:

It reflects the fear of many people as regards a centralized federal power.

Explanation:

The passage refers to the period that immediately followed American independence from Britain. The articles of this Constitution were ambiguous on purpose because, in that way, aristocrats in charge of the power could exercise rights and modify the Constitution at their convenience. Americans felt that a federal government that concentrated most of the authority over the states would establish a tyranny similar to the one King George III had.

Answer:

B. providing a framework for government

Explanation:

A country is made up of individuals of different races, colors, backgrounds, and classes. Not everyone can take part in government affairs. There is, however, a need to have organized bodies that will represent the interest of the people.

Thus the United States Constitution provides for a regulated system of government by establishing the three branches of government. They are; the Executive, Legislature and Judiciary. According to the Constitution, the Legislative branch of government is made up of the Senate and House of Representatives. This branch of government is charged with the powers to make laws.  Through these bodies, the wishes of the people come to life.
