Presentation transcript:

Origins of the Two-Party System Hamilton vs. Jefferson Get today’s handouts from the side table…and be prepared to be amazed Yeah…I actually agree with you for once…we are amazing. How did the disagreements between Hamilton and Jefferson help create the nation’s 1st political parties?

George Washington’s Cabinet Washington appointed advisors to help him run the country (precedent!) Thomas Jefferson: Secretary of State In charge of the Department of State, which deals with foreign affairs Alexander Hamilton: Secretary of the Treasury In charge of the Department of Treasury, which manages the nations finances Henry Knox: Secretary of War In charge of the Department of War, which handles military matters Edmund Randolph: Attorney General Chief lawyer of the federal government

Alexander Hamilton Believed in a strong central government led by a prosperous elite Believed that commerce and industry were the keys to a strong nation Envisioned an America much like Great Britain, with a strong central government, commerce, and industry. Was popular in the North (New England) Financial plan included a plan for a National Bank. “Loose interpretation” of the Constitution Government has powers that are not necessarily in the Constitution

Thomas Jefferson Distrusted a strong central government and the rich Favored strong state and local governments Favored a society of “farmer-citizens” Was popular in the South and West Disagreed with Hamilton’s plan for a National Bank “Strict interpretation” of the Constitution If it’s not in the Constitution, the government can’t do it.

Impacts of the Feud The conflicts between Hamilton and Jefferson divided the Cabinet, and caused a division in national politics This division would lead to the creation of the nation’s 1st political parties (against Washington’s advice): Federalists (Hamilton) Republicans/Democratic-Republicans (Jefferson) Disagreements over the size and scope of the federal government continues to divide politics today.
