Identify the reasons the Anti-Federalists argued for a separate, written bill of rights.
What will be an ideal response?
Although the original Constitution included articles and sections that codified citizens' protections, the Anti-Federalists, led by Thomas Jefferson, argued for the inclusion of a separate, written bill of rights. The freedoms embodied in the Bill of Rights, although broad principles, offer the advantage of being subject to interpretation and re-interpretation by successive Supreme Courts.
