What were the main arguments of the anti-federalists?

They belived that the closer government was to the people, the easier it was for the people to keep it in check and thus the harder it was for the government to become tyrannical. Thus they felt that most governing power should be retained by the individual states and the central government should be given as little power as possible. They felt that the government created by the constitution could eventualy overwhelm the states and take away the ability of their people to govern themselves. Hence it would threaten their rights.

What revolutionary actions does the Declaration of Independence suggest should be the duty of citizens?

The Declaration of Independence was the first document to justify a revolution against an established government. The Declaration has three parts. It starts with a statement of basic human rights that all people enjoy--"rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" It then goes on to proclaim that a just government is one that has the consent of the people being governed. This is the revolutionary action -- when a government fails to protect the rights of the people or is destructive of the rights of the people, then the people have the right to alter or abolish the government and form a new government that will be protective of the people's rights. The second part of the Declaration is listing of specific complaints the colonists had against King George III. The third part of the Declaration contains the actual statement of independence from Great Britain. MrV

Why did the framers created a federal system of government in which power is shared between the national and state government?

The framers wanted this because they didn't want the national government to get too strong and become a monarchy, like the one they just worked so hard to get out of. The constitution created a federal system as a compromise so that power of government would be shared between the states and federal government, and the federal government would not become too powerful. It was the only choice the founders thought they had in order to achieve this.
