Democracy requires active participation in the government. The government proposed under the Constitution insists on a distant capital where each states’ representatives must relocate for government processes. Anti-Federalists question how citizens can participate in their government if their elected representatives leave their home state. This leads to a great danger that the state representatives will be influenced more by the president rather than their constituents.

Good point.

To reiterate the point of checks and balances, the people should not fear the extended powers of the executive branch. Both the Congress and Supreme Court check the powers of the executive branch to prevent a rise of monarchy. While the executive branch remains commander-in-chief of the army, the safeguards provided by the separation of powers give Congress the right to declare war, not the executive branch. Lastly, including a bill of rights in the Constitution is entirely unnecessary. Listing a bill of rights on the Constitution gives citizens the impression that they are to only expect protection of the rights specifically listed on the Constitution rather than a broader spectrum of rights implied by the Constitution.
