What political figurehead rejected the lecompton constitution?
The Lecompton Constitution was rejected by President James Buchanan. He was a Democratic president who served from 1857 to 1861. He was a strong supporter of popular sovereignty and sought to allow the people of Kansas to decide for themselves whether or not to accept slavery. He ultimately rejected the proposed constitution, which was pro-slavery, because it did not give the people of Kansas the right to vote on the issue. Moreover, the proposed constitution did not properly represent the interests of the majority of Kansas residents, who were against slavery. In response to Buchanan's rejection of the Lecompton Constitution, Congress passed the English Bill, which allowed for a vote on the issue of slavery in Kansas. The people of Kansas overwhelmingly voted against slavery, which effectively ended the debate.

The Anti-Federalists were extremely concerned that a strong central government would result in severely weakened state power. Therefore, in order to make sure that the people retained some rights that were protected from national government intrusion, the Anti-Feds demanded that a Bill of Rights be added to the Constitution. Without the addition of the Bill of Rights, the Anti-Feds would have rejected the Constitution in its entirety and it would have not survived ratification. Therefore, because they rejected the Constitution because it originally lacked a Bill of Rights, a Bill of Rights was added to appease them.
