The principle of federalism contained in the Constitution of the United States is most consistent with the ideas of – Speaker A: Life is a struggle. Those who seize and maintain political power represent the strongest and most competent of that society and earn the right to govern.

Speaker B: A leader is not ultimately responsible to the people but to God, from whom the leader derives the right to govern.

Speaker C: Each citizen is entitled to a voice in government. Therefore, government should be run by those representatives elected directly by the citizens so that the will of the citizens is expressed.

Speaker D: History has taught us that the concentration of political power leads to the abuse of that power. Therefore, power should be divided among national, state, and local governments.
