Answer:

B. Constitution must guarantee the protection of individual rights.

Step-by-step explanation:

An anti-federalist during this era was someone who was opposed to the U.S. federal government. They were against the constitution giving the federal government more power. So an Anti-Federalist would not have supported a stronger federal government nor would they have wanted them to create and collect taxes. They valued individual rights and more specifically, state rights. They thought the federal government was trying to impose on states rights. They weren’t happy with the current Constitution before the ratification debate so they wouldn’t have wanted it to remain as is either. Anti-Federalists most likely would have supported the idea that the Constitution must guarantee the protection of individual rights.
