B.it did not give the president enough power
C.it gave the states too much authority
D. it did not protect the fundamental rights of citizens

Answer 1

there were two anti-federalist movements and I quote from Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-federalist

"The first Anti-Federalist movement formed in reaction to the Federalist movement of the 1780s. It opposed the creation of a stronger national government under the Constitution and sought to leave the government under the Articles of Confederation intact.
The second Anti-Federalist movement formed in reaction to Alexander Hamilton's aggressive fiscal policies of George Washington's first administration. This movement is sometimes called the Anti-Administration "Party", and it would coalesce into one of the nation's first two true political parties, the Democratic-Republican Party of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison (not to be confused with the modern Republican Party). "

With this information you can answer the question yourself -- best of luck.
