Compare the arguments for and against the Constitution made by the Federalists and Antifederalists during the struggle over ratification?
The main agreements between the antifederalist and the federalist were about the bill of rights and the need for a government. The antifederalist demanded to have a bill of rights because it can explain the ideals described in the Declaration of Independence better than the Constitution because the bill of rights gives us freedom of press, freedom of speech, and freedom of religion.

Does the anti federalist or the federalist make a stronger agreement and you?
Actually both sides had a good argument. AAt the time I would say that the federalists had the better argument only because they were for the Constitution. But, although they had a good improvment to the Articles of Confederation, many antifederalists made a very good point about a possible tyranny or oppressive rule by giving the central government (the president) power to tax and control the army. The Bill of Rights was also stongly enforced by the antifederalists, which was important to add to the laws. Overall, I think that federalists had the better argument. Benjamin Franklin was a federalist also, and he pointed out that the Constitution was not perfect, but it was about as good as it gets. It is hard to make a central government, and the Constitution was a very good improvment to the Articles of Confederation. It is also a matter of oppinion, so really is your choice of who had the better argument.
