Question

"all men having power ought to be mistrusted."—James Madison

Answer 1

Answer:

b. if you were an anti-federalist, you would use the quote to support your argument that a confederation of sovereign states is the best form of government.

Explanation:

Anti-federalists were those who opposed the ratification of the Constitution. Anti-federalists believed that the Constitution gave too much power to the centralized, federal government. They were worried about the fact that such a centralized government might be able to hold too much power, weakening the autonomy of the states. They would most likely agree with this statement, as the statement says that those who hold power should always be mistrusted.
