it did not give the president enough power

Wrong. It gave the Congress and President TOO much power - Anti-Federalists wanted a SMALL government, with limited powers. They were afraid that a big government would trample the rights of the individual person, like for example making them take their clothes off at the airport, or reading their email without them knowing it,, or tossing them in jail without a trial... Anti-Federalists pushed for the Bill of Rights which gave individuals such things as freedom of speech and religion, and protected them against unreasonable searches and seizures.

it granted the cheif executive to much power.
