Answer 1

Answer:

6a. A strong and independent president, a stronger two-house Congress, a Supreme Court, state-based money, and national defense. The Bill of Rights, also known as the First Ten Amendments, provided citizens of the United States with specific rights that the government could not deny them under the Constitution, the country's supreme law. 6b. It was written by a Federalist Party member. The federalists were a group of people who pushed for the ratification of the new United States Constitution, which established a strong central government with sufficient enforcement powers to lead the newly formed nation and was divided into three branches: judicial, executive, and legislative, each of which could influence and limit the other through the Checks and Balances system. The poster was most likely written by a Federalist because it emphasizes the primary benefits of the new system of government established by the Constitution and invites the reader to ratify it. Federalists believed in a strong central government and supported the Constitution. Anti-Federalists opposed the Constitution because they opposed a strong central government. George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and Alexander Hamilton were among the Federalists.
