Why did antifederalists oppose?
Federalists were people who supported the new Constitution and wanted it ratified to replace the Articles of Confederation. Federalists supported a strong national government with powers to control interstate commerce, the power to tax, and holding more governmental power in the nation than the states. Federalists were one of the first political parties to develop in the US. Anti-Federalists did not favor ratification of the Constitution. Some said they would support it if a Bill of Rights was added. Anti-Federalists favored states' rights and believed a too powerful national government would not protect the rights of the people. Anti-Federalists opposed the political party of the Federalists.

Anti-federalists believe that State government should be more important and more powerful than the Federal government. They also believe that the Bill of Rights is good and that it should be kept.

They finally compromised on a constitution when the Bill of Rights were drafted, guaranteeing certain powers to the people and the states.

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. Also, the federalist felt like it was important to have a government. They both disagreed. This is right luv
What exactly was a Federalists point of view Were they more like Democrats or Republicans Did they support the constitution?
A Federalist was someone who believed in a strong central government. Federalists cannot really be compared to either Democrats or Republicans; Federalists were their own political party. However, since they opposed the Democratic-Republican party (later to become the Democratic party), they could possibly be associated more with Republicans, in that regard. They did support the Constitution, and favored a loose view of it, meaning that they used such devices as the Elastic Clause to give the central government more power than what is strictly stated in the Constitution.
