C) Congressional state delegates were to be chose annually is true of the governmental structure set forth in the Articles of Confederation. This is exactly why they were seen as weak documents by the Federalists, because there was no bicameralism, no centralized government and no set of government branches, the Articles of Confederation (as they saw it) were merely set up to explain how to handle diplomatic relations.
