concern with the constitution federalist papers argument
the federal government wont reflect the needs of people in different communities all across the country.
the powers of the federal government are too broad, which could allow it to overpower state governments.
even though the federal government is limited to the powers enumerated in the constitution, it could still grow too powerful.
the federal governments separation of powers will not prevent one branch from dominating the others.

Explanation:

The Federalist Papers argued that the federal - state division of power would ensure local needs are met as states handle local issues. Also, the separation of powers and checks - and - balances in the federal government would prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful. The limited powers of the federal government as specified in the Constitution would prevent it from overpowering states.

1. The Constitution creates a federal government to address national issues and state governments to manage local issues, so the federal government can reflect local needs through state governments.

3. The Constitution divides the federal government into three separate branches, each with different powers and gives each branch the power to check the actions of the other branches, preventing one branch from dominating the others.
