Explanation:

To determine the group that strongly supported the addition of a Bill of Rights to the U.S. Constitution, we analyze each option:

• Whigs: A later political party, not relevant to the Constitution's early ratification.
• Democrats: Formed later, not involved in the Bill of Rights debate.
• Federalists: Supported a strong central government and initially opposed a Bill of Rights, believing it was unnecessary.
• Anti - Federalists: Opposed the Constitution as drafted, fearing a lack of individual rights protection, so they strongly supported adding a Bill of Rights.

D. Anti - Federalist
