All of the following were features or powers of government under the Articles of Confederation EXCEPT "It called for a president elected by the state legislatures."

The Articles of Confederation was the first kind of Constitution in the United States. It created sovereign and independent states that could collect taxes and a weak central government that had just basic functions such as operate a post office, receive ambassadors, and oversee the relationships with Native American Indians tribes. The national government couldn't collect taxes either regulate commerce.
