Use the passage to answer the question. This excerpt is from a speech by a(n) (Federalist / Anti-Federalist) in favor of a (strong / weaker) central government. He fears that a national government will (threaten / secure) the rights of individuals. He will likely (sign / not sign) the Constitution.

"Does any man suppose, that one general National Government can exist in so extensive a country as this? I hope that a Government may be framed which may suit us, by drawing the line between the general and State Governments, and prevent that dangerous clashing of interest and power, which must, as it now stands, terminate in the destruction of one or the other. When we come to the Judiciary, we shall be more convinced, that this Government will terminate in the annihilation of the State Governments: The question then will be, whether a consolidated Government can preserve the freedom, and secure the great rights of the people."

—George Mason, 1788
