What was Federalists and anti federalists point of view on president?

Federalists supported a strong central government and believed that a powerful president was essential for effective leadership and national unity. They argued that a single executive could act decisively and ensure stability. In contrast, Anti-Federalists were concerned that a strong presidency could lead to tyranny and the erosion of individual liberties. They favored a weaker executive and stronger state governments, advocating for safeguards to limit presidential power.
