What did the federalists and the anti-federalists want after the constitution was created in 1787?

a. the federalists wanted to add a clause to the constitution that outlawed slavery; the anti-federalists wanted a guarantee that slavery would not be abolished for 20 years.

b. the federalists wanted the constitution to be ratified as written; the anti-federalists wanted the constitution to include a bill of rights to protect individual freedoms and limit the power of the national government.

c. the federalists wanted the constitution amended to describe the national government as a federal system; the anti-federalist wanted the constitution to establish a parliamentary system of government.

d. the federalists wanted to abolish state governments and give their power to the federal government; the anti-federalists wanted each state government to be more powerful than the federal government.

After the Constitution was created in 1787, the Federalists wanted the Constitution to be ratified as written; the Anti-Federalists wanted the Constitution to include a Bill of Rights to protect individual freedoms and limit the power of the national government.

The 1787 Constitution replaced the 1777 Articles of Confederation as the document serving as U.S. constitution. The Federalists, who were in favor of a strong national government, did not like the Articles because they thought they had made the central government too weak. When debating the new Constitution, which reinforced the powers of the presidency, they were willing to ratify it as it was.

The Anti-Federalists however, feared the presidency would be in danger of becoming closer to a monarchy under the new Constitution. They were advocates of states' and citizens' freedoms. This is why they thought the Constitution would only be acceptable if a Bill of Rights was added to it, to protect the people's rights.

In the end, James Madison proposed ten amendments to the Constitution in 1789. They were accepted as the "U.S. Bill of Rights" and enabled the Constitution to be ratified by all thirteen states by 1790.

for the united states of america, 1945 to 1964 was a time of high economic growth and general prosperity. it was also a time of confrontation as the capitalist united states and its allies politically opposed the soviet union and other communist countries; the cold war had begun.

explanation:

separation of powers, therefore, refers to the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches to limit any one branch from exercising the core functions of another.   the intent is to prevent the concentration of power and provide for checks and balances.  

the traditional characterizations of the powers of the branches of american government are:

* the legislative branch is responsible for enacting the laws of the state and appropriating the money necessary to operate the government.

* the executive branch is responsible for implementing and administering the public policy enacted and funded by the legislative branch.

* the judicial branch is responsible for interpreting the constitution and laws and applying their interpretations to controversies brought before it.

forty state constitutions specify that government be divided into three branches:   legislative, executive and judicial.   california illustrates this approach; "the powers of state government are legislative, executive, and judicial.   persons charged with the exercise of one power may not exercise either of the others except as permitted by this constitution."

while separation of powers is key to the workings of american government, no democratic system exists with an absolute separation of powers or an absolute lack of separation of powers. governmental powers and responsibilities intentionally overlap; they are too complex and interrelated to be neatly compartmentalized. as a result, there is an inherent measure of competition and conflict
