The Ratification Debate

Question 1 • 8th Grade US History & Geography A

The Constitution grants rights and powers

Answer
A
to U.S. citizens only.
B
to U.S. citizens and their government
C
to the government only.

Explanation

The Constitution does both: it protects people’s rights and gives the government specific powers. So the best answer is “to U.S. citizens and their government.” Choice A is too narrow because many constitutional rights apply to people in the United States, not only citizens.
