...Their argument was pred? In the 1780s, Federalists argued against the inclusion of a Bill of Rights to the U.S. Constitution. Their argument was predicated upon a belief that:

a. Inclusion of a Bill of Rights was a means of empowering Anti-Federalist factions
b. The Constitution adequately limited governmental powers and therefore a Bill of Rights was unnecessary
c. The Supreme Court as outlined in the Constitution would protect individual rights
