Abstract
When the United States Constitution was first being written there was a critical division between two groups called the federalists and the anti-federalists. The federalists opposed the Constitution and believed in a loose construction of government. The anti- federalists, on the other hand, believed in a stricter construction of government. The federalists and anti-federalists brought up many very important points when revising the original Articles of Confederation. Two of the best examples of Federalist and anti-Federalist perspectives concerning the creation of the Constitution include Brutus I by Robert Yates and Federalist 10 by James Madison.
