A Young Nation First Political Parties

Opposing Views By 1796 American began to divide into opposing groups and form political parties. The founding fathers did not mention political parties when writing the Constitution.

Opposing Views Many at that time, including George Washington, believed political parties to be harmful to the nation. The powers of the federal government was a topic of disagreement.

Partisan Favoring one side of an issue or one political party

Bipartisan Supported by both sides. Members of both political parties are in support.

Federalists Name given to those who supported ratification of the Constitution and a strong federal government. (Washington and John Adams was a federalists)

Federalists They were behind policies that favored the banking and shipping industry. Believed that pure democracy was dangerous to liberty. Did not believe the public should be too involved in politics.

Federalists Strong support in the Northeast and among wealthy plantation owners in the South.

Republicans Wanted to limit the power of federal government for fear that it would limit individual liberties. (led by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison)

Republicans Believed that democracy and liberty would only be safe if ordinary people participated fully in government. Republican policies were supported by small farmers and urban workers.

Implied Powers Powers of the federal government that were not expressly forbidden in the Constitution.

Implied Powers Federalists believed the federal government had the right to use these powers. Republicans believed in a strict interpretation of the Constitution and that these powers should only be used if absolutely necessary.

Election of 1796 Was the first election in which candidates from opposite parties ran against one and another.

Election of 1796 Before the election members of the parties held caucuses, meetings at which members of Congress and other leaders chose their parties’ candidates.

Election of 1796 For president, the Federalists nominated John Adams while the Republicans nominated Thomas Jefferson.

Election of 1796 Adams won the elections with 71 of the electoral votes, while Jefferson finished with 68.

Election of 1796 Under the Constitution at that time the candidate that came in second became Vice President. So Jefferson was Adams’ Vice President even though they were from opposite parties.
