Which passage from the Article best supports the notion that the Federalists primarily agreed to the Bill of Rights because they supported the Constitution?

A.Most states also had a bill of rights and those that didn't at least list individual rights directly in their constitutions. The U.S. Constitution didn't even do that. What it did do was say that the Constitution was the "supreme law of the land" and was superior to state laws and constitutions.
B.Some of these were in the Magna Carta, and others were in the English Bill of Rights, which had been written fewer than 100 years before America's revolution. The rights in these documents were citizens' only protection from a government that could be both abusive and unpredictable and over which citizens had almost no control.
C.The Bill of Rights was a gesture of goodwill that was meant to bring everyone together around the new Constitution. Above all, the goal was to see the United States become a nation of unified people.
D.So not only did the Constitution fail to protect individual rights, but it also overruled the protections in state constitutions. It seemed that a bill of rights would be needed to ensure that the federal government could not overstep its bounds.
