Whiskey Rebellion Formation

The political parties had numerous factors to their build up, the forms of government being just one part. Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, the groups they favored, The Whiskey Rebellion, and even George Washington himself affected the reason why the formation of political parties emerged. The President faced numerous challenges leading up to this point. Alexander Hamilton was the secretary of treasury in the Cabinet led by George Washington. He also led the loose Construction during the late 1700s. This construction gave congress implied powers, and to take any actions not specifically forbidden. The Constitution allows congress to act for the general welfare so it could charter a bank. Not only leading this group, he was the creator
of the National Bank. He proposed chartering a Bank of the United States to regulate state banks and insure business support. He hoped to replace the nation's agricultural based economy with commerce and manufacturing. As he was continuously busy during his government involved days, he was, believe it or not, also briefly included in the Whiskey Rebellion period. An excise tax on Whiskey led to divisions between the Antifederalists and Federalists- his main leading group. Hamilton persuaded george Washington to suppress the Whiskey Rebellion, while he was being criticized by Jefferson for the use of federal force to repress legitimate criticism. Thomas Jefferson was also included in the Cabinet George Washington established.
Jefferson was the Secretary of State, he has a big responsibility of controlling foreign affairs. He was also known for opposing Hamilton's plan of the National bank. He strongly felt the plain gave more power to the government than the Constitution allows. Most southern states had already paid off their war debts, he questioned why they should bail out northern states that still had debts. Thomas Jefferson also favored the Strict Constitution. The group felt congress should be limited to the power specifically granted by the Constitution. He criticized Hamilton for the use of federal force to repress legitimate criticism. Democratic Republicans favored him and James Madison also. The party was strongest among southerners and farmers. Closely following after the Whiskey Rebellion, and despite Washington's disapproval and the challenges he faced through the years leading up, 2 political parties emerged, those 2 groups being the Democratic Republicans and the Federalists. The Democratic Republicans were favored by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. The party was strongest among southerners and farmers. The second group were the Federalists. Hamilton favored this group especially. The Federalists were strongest among Northerners, Merchants, and the
wealthy. The Political Parties has numerous amounts of debate leading up to their formations. Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington did start those debates though, and they were the reasons all these other “reasons” occurred.
