Explanation: The Constitution already includes provisions that protect individual rights, such as the Bill of Rights, which was added to the Constitution shortly after its ratification. These rights were intended to apply to all citizens, regardless of whether they lived in a specific state or were under the jurisdiction of the national government. Therefore, the existing protections in the Constitution may be sufficient and make an additional bill of rights for the national government unnecessary.
