Sariah Levine · Answer 1

B.

Explanation:

It can't be A s because they were striving for rights. They definitely didn't want to be powerless again after the tyranny pf the king.

It wouldn't make sense if it were C, because of Shay's Rebellion. They were afraid it would happen again and get more out of control.

it can't be D because it was VERY MUCH discussed. Why else would they write their Federalists Papers?

Your best bet would be B.
