The Articles of Confederation reflected a strong belief in the supremacy of

the president

the court system

state government

federal government

The correct answer is state government.

The Articles of Confederation was the first government made by the US as an independent nation. After a terrible experience with an extremely strong central government (aka Great Britain) the founding fathers wanted to put an emphasis on state governments having control. The last thing American citizens wanted was another out of touch central government that would tax them without their consent.
