"If mankind were to resolve to agree in no institution of government, until every part of it had been adjusted to the most exact standard of perfection, society would soon become a general scene of anarchy, and the world a desert."—Alexander Hamilton

Which of the following makes a true statement about the quote?

a-Hamilton is an Anti-federalist making a case for changes to the Constitution before the states vote on ratification.

b- Hamilton is an Anti-federalist making a case for immediate ratification of the Constitution without any changes.

None of these options would be correct, since Hamilton was in fact the leading Federalist of his day, although the second part of the option B is correct, since he heavily pushed for ratification.

"Hamilton is a Federalist making a case for immediate ratification of the Constitution without any changes."

In this case, the correct answer would be D. "Hamilton is a Federalist making a case for immediate ratification of the Constitution without any changes."
