Daily Essential Questions: How did the development of political parties impact the election of 1796? What political issues did Adams have to confront both foreign and domestic?

Jefferson on Hamilton I just wish Hamilton would roll over and die. He and I cannot and will not ever agree on anything it seems. Ever! His interpretation of our constitution is too loose and is making a mockery of all we fought against. A National Bank! Who needs it? Why does he feel it is necessary? It isn't! It is convenient, yes, but necessary? I think not. His disdain for the common man infuriates me. I think someone has forgotten his origin. I fear that we are driving poor Washington insane, and I believe that he will not remain in office much longer. Hamilton on Jefferson Although John Adams will make a fine president, it is Jefferson I am worried about. He is a good man with good intentions, but he does not need to be so afraid of the government having a little power. Congress, the executive branch, and the judicial branch will keep each other in check, and the people will always have the last say in the matter. Just ask King George. If Jefferson had his way, there would not be any government to speak of. We would be left to struggle with basic problems. Jefferson just has too much confidence in people as a whole. The average man on his own is a very logical human being, however, large groups of people become hostile easily and very unstable. That is why the national government needs to be strong. It does not matter that the man has contradicted everything I have ever said. Even the national Bank, which will put our economy on a strong base and bring our states closer together, he distrusted. I just hope people will be able to see how important a strong national government is, and what it can accomplish for the good of the people. Maybe with time, they will see. Read the two passages.

Parties Develop (Hamilton and Jefferson have opposing views) Federalists: led by Hamilton Supported strong national gov’t Loose view of constitution Favors NE businessmen & merchants Democratic- Republicans: led by Jefferson and Madison Supported limited role of federal gov’t Southerners, farmers, yeomen Strict interpretation of the constitution
