Issues Hamilton (Federalist Party) Jefferson (Democratic-Republican Party) Federalism (division of power) Strong central government, weak state governments Strong state governments, weak central government Tariff (taxes) on imported goods US government should tax imported goods to generate revenue and pay off debts. This encourages people to buy American made goods and encourages manufacturing. States should not be subjected to a national tax of any kind. There should be no tariffs on imports. US Economy Manufacturing, the US government should support manufacturing Farming is the main economic activity that the US should protect and support Interpretation of the Constitution Elastic clause allows for loose interpretation of the Constitution Strict interpretation, government shouldn’t go beyond what is outlined in Constitution Whiskey Rebellion National government has the power to issue taxes to raise revenue. The Whiskey Rebellion represents a plot to promote states rights and was put down properly. National government should leave taxation to the states. In the Whiskey Rebellion, the government used the army to put down legitimate protest to an unfair government tax. Analysis Question: Based on the information in this chart, predict what Hamilton and Jefferson would do in the following scenario: There is a proposal to create a National Bank of the United States. ?The power to create this bank is not explicitly listed in the US Constitution, but those who support it cite the elastic clause (which suggests that congress can do anything necessary and proper for the functioning of our nation) as a reason why this bank would be constitutional. ?Those who oppose it believe it is an expansion of Federal power therefore dangerous. ?Who do you think would support the bank - Hamilton or Jefferson and why? __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Who do you think would be against the bank - Hamilton or Jefferson and why? __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Name: _______________________________________Date: _____________ Saunders/Mrs. McNerneyUS History/______Do Now: Which political party supported a strong national government? __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________4005580123825Democratic-RepublicansFounded by Thomas _____________________________.Believed in _________________ central government; strong _________________ governments.Wanted an ___________________ based on _________________________ Believed the _________________________ of the bank was _______________________________.Supported French ___________________________________ in the French Rev.Believed “________________________” men should have say in government .(property owners)Strict ______________________________ of the Constitution.400000Democratic-RepublicansFounded by Thomas _____________________________.Believed in _________________ central government; strong _________________ governments.Wanted an ___________________ based on _________________________ Believed the _________________________ of the bank was _______________________________.Supported French ___________________________________ in the French Rev.Believed “________________________” men should have say in government .(property owners)Strict ______________________________ of the Constitution.Unit 5: Young Republic- Notes 2Federalists-3746546990FederalistsFounded by Alexander ______________________________.Believed in a ___________________ central government.Wanted an economy based on ________________________________.________________________ the creation of a ___________________________ Bank.Supported _____________________ in its conflict with France.Believed educated ______________ should control ____________________________.________________ interpretation of the _____________________________.400000FederalistsFounded by Alexander ______________________________.Believed in a ___________________ central government.Wanted an economy based on ________________________________.________________________ the creation of a ___________________________ Bank.Supported _____________________ in its conflict with France.Believed educated ______________ should control ____________________________.________________ interpretation of the _____________________________.Classwork: Historical Context - Cabinet Battle #1 from Hamilton (2015) - a Broadway Musical In July 2008, while Lin-Manuel Miranda was on vacation in Mexico, Lin-Manuel took on a little light reading in the form of Ron Chernow’s 800-page New York Times best-selling biography, Alexander Hamilton, chronicling the life of the first Treasury Secretary of the United States. Lin-Manuel was captivated by the story of Hamilton’s life and how the very human struggles of the American Revolution continue to manifest themselves in today's society. From here, an idea grew to tell the story of Hamilton through contemporary song stylings, but the shape of that project was still a long way from being fully-formed. At the time, it was conceived as a concept album to be known as "The Hamilton Mixtape." ?Eventually, this became Hamilton, a broadway musical that debuted in New York City in 2015. ??DirectionsOne song from the second act of the musical, Cabinet Battle # 1, reviews the debate between Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton over the creation of the National Bank. Listen to the song twice, using the prompts below to guide you. ?When you are done, compare the lyrics of the song to the primary source documents provided to evaluate the songs as a source of historical documentation. Listen: Cabinet Battle # 1: Listen to the song Cabinet Battle #1 from Hamilton the Musical by Lin Manuel-Miranda (2015). ?The first time you listen to it, jot your thoughts down in the box below. ?Use the questions below to help you shape your notes and reflections. What do you hear? Based on this song, who do you think supports the bank? Based on your first listen to this song, what do you think the relationship was like between Hamilton and Jefferson? Lyrics Annotations[WASHINGTON]Ladies and gentlemen, you coulda been anywhere in the world tonight, but you’re here with us in New York City. Are you ready for a cabinet meeting???1The issue on the table: Secretary Hamilton’s plan to assume state debt and establish a national bank2. Secretary Jefferson, you have the floor, sir[JEFFERSON]‘Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.’We fought for these ideals; we shouldn’t settle for lessThese are wise words, enterprising men quote ‘emDon’t act surprised, you guys, cuz I wrote ‘em3[JEFFERSON/ JAMES MADISON]Oww[JEFFERSON]But Hamilton forgetsHis plan would have the government assume state’s debtsNow, place your bets as to who that benefits:The very seat of government where Hamilton sits4[HAMILTON]Not true![JEFFERSON]Ooh, if the shoe fits, wear itIf New York’s in debt—Why should Virginia bear it? Uh! Our debts are paid, I’m afraidDon’t tax the South cuz we got it made in the shadeIn Virginia, we plant seeds in the groundWe create.

[HAMILTON]Thomas. That was a real nice declarationWelcome to the present, we’re running a real nationWould you like to join us, or stay mellowDoin’ whatever the hell it is you do in Monticello?If we assume the debts, the union getsA new line of credit, a financial diureticHow do you not get it? If we’re aggressive and competitiveThe union gets a boost. You’d rather give it a sedative?7A civics lesson from a slaver. Hey neighborYour debts are paid cuz you don’t pay for labor“We plant seeds in the South. We create.”Yeah, keep rantingWe know who’s really doing the planting8And another thing, Mr. Age of EnlightenmentDon’t lecture me about the war, you didn’t fight in itYou think I’m frightened of you, man?We almost died in the trenchWhile you were off getting high with the FrenchThomas Jefferson, always hesitant with the PresidentReticent—there isn’t a plan he doesn’t jettisonMadison, you’re mad as a hatter, son, take your medicineDamn, you’re in worse shape than the national debt is in9 Sittin’ there useless Hey, turn around, bend over, I’ll show youWhere my shoe fits[WASHINGTON]Thank you, Secretary Jefferson[WASHINGTON]Excuse me?

Hamilton![HAMILTON]Sir![WASHINGTON]A word[MADISON]You don’t have the votes[JEFFERSON/MADISON]You don’t have the votes[JEFFERSON]Aha-ha-ha ha![JEFFERSON/MADISON]You’re gonna need congressional approval and you don’t have the votes[JEFFERSON]Such a blunder sometimes it makes me wonder why I even bring the thunder[MADISON]Why he even brings the thunder…[WASHINGTON]You wanna pull yourself together?[HAMILTON]I’m sorry, these Virginians are birds of a feather[WASHINGTON]Young man, I’m from Virginia, so watch your mouth[HAMILTON]So we let Congress get held hostage by the South?[WASHINGTON]You need the votes[HAMILTON]No, we need bold strokes. We need this plan[WASHINGTON]No, you need to convince more folks[HAMILTON]James Madison won’t talk to me, that’s a nonstarter[WASHINGTON]Winning was easy, young man. Governing’s harder10[HAMILTON]They’re being intransigent[WASHINGTON]You have to find a compromise[HAMILTON]But they don’t have a plan, they just hate mine![WASHINGTON]Convince them otherwise[HAMILTON]What happens if I don’t get congressional approval?[WASHINGTON]I imagine they’ll call for your removal[HAMILTON]Sir—[WASHINGTON]Figure it out, Alexander. That’s an order from your commander1: President George Washington’s Cabinet was the first such group of presidential advisors. ?Thomas Jefferson was the Cabinet Secretary of State (foreign affairs) and Alexander Hamilton was the Secretary of Treasury 2: In his capacity as Secretary of Treasury, Hamilton proposed a plan to create a National Bank 3: Jefferson is referring to the fact that he wrote the Declaration of Independence here; it was not widely known that he was the author at the time. 4: Hamilton argued that having the federal government assume state debts would bind them together and strengthen the power of the federal government. Jefferson also implies that Hamilton’s support of it is self-serving. Making the federal government responsible for more of the nation’s financial future would specifically vest more power in the Department of Treasury, the department Hamilton was head of. ?5: Jefferson is basically saying that a state’s debt should be its own responsibility to pay off—no state should be responsible for another’s failings. Some states like Virginia, Maryland, and Georgia had paid off their war debts, partially by levying high taxes. 6: Here the lyrics of Jefferson are also alluding to the idea that Federalists tended to believe in elitism and that men like themselves (learned, educated, and mostly wealthy men) should be the ones who govern, whereas the Democratic-Republicans tended to believe in the ideas of the Anti-Federalists, that the government should be run by ordinary men. 7: In these lyrics, Hamilton is suggesting that assuming the debts of the nation and creating a new line of credit through the National Bank would jumpstart the economy. ?8: In the earlier verse Jefferson suggested that as farmers in Virginia, they are contributing to the economy in the most important way. Here Hamilton is calling out Jefferson as a hypocrite by alluding to the fact that slaves were the ones who did the planting. 9: Madison, a Democratic-Republican, and eventually the 4th President of the US, was rumored to have many different ailments, including hypochondria (irrational fear of diseases), and epilepsy (a disorder where one would have frequent seizures). ?10: Through this back and forth, we learn the Bank wasn’t a popular idea. ?During the Revolutionary War, Hamilton served as Washington’s secretary. Here, President Washington is saying to Hamilton that winning the war seems easy in comparison to the harder task of actually governing the nation.

To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any definition...The incorporation of a bank, and the powers assumed by this bill, have not, in my opinion, been delegated to the United States, by the Constitution. #Follow the constitution EXACTLY how its written… In article one section eight of the US Constitution, it reads that the legislative body (congress) shall have the power to "regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the States, and with the Indian tribes." To erect a bank, and to regulate commerce, are very different acts….#the power to make a bank is not the same as regulating commerceThe second general phrase quoted in support of the Constitutionality of this bank is the necessary and proper clause that, "to make all laws necessary and proper for carrying into execution the enumerated (listed) powers." But they can all be carried into execution without a bank. A bank therefore is not necessary, and consequently not authorized by this phrase…. ?Congress with power to do whatever would be for the good of the United States; and, as they would be the sole judges of the good or evil, it would be also a power to do whatever evil they please...Source #2: Hamilton's Opinion on the Constitutionality of the National Bank (1791) ?….The bank does have constitutional basis when closely examining the commerce powers as outlined in the Constitution...The proposed bank is to consist of an association of persons, for purpose of creating a join capital, to be employed, chiefly, and essentially, in loans....the bank as it proposed will be the receiver of all taxes collected...accordingly it is affirmed that the bank has a relation, more or less direct, to the power of collecting taxes; to that of borrowing and lending money; to that of regulating trade between the states, all of which are outlined as powers of Congress in article one of the US Constitution. #bank is necessary to collect taxes, borrow money and regulate tradeAnd in the last place, it will be argued, that it is clearly within the provision which authorizes the making of all needed rules and regulations concerning the property of the United States…. ?The only question must be in this, as in every other case, whether the mean to be employed or in this instance, the corporation to be erected, has a natural relation to any of the acknowledged objects or lawful ends of the government. Thus a corporation may not be erected by Congress for superintending the police of the city of Philadelphia, because they are not authorized to regulate the police of that city. But one may be erected in relation to the collection of taxes, or to the trade with foreign countries, or to the trade between the States, or with the Indian tribes; because it is the province of the federal government to regulate those objects, and because it is incident to a general sovereign or legislative power to regulate a thing, to employ all the means which relate to its regulation to the best and greatest advantage. . . .Analysis Questions: Sourcing: Are sources #1 and 2 secondary sources or primary sources?

Additionally, as a result of many lengthy wars with Great Britain and the French Revolution, France was in deep debt. ?To support their economy, starting in approximately 1795, French navy and French privateers began the practice of impressment: seizing and stealing American trading vessels, their goods, and their sailors. ?This angered many Americans and left them afraid of France. Hoping to avoid war, President John Adams sent diplomats to France. During the meetings, French representatives known as X, Y, and Z demanded a bribe of $10 million. ?They also threatened the United States with the “power and violence of France”. Many Americans feared that war with France was around the corner. ?According to the 1790 census, there were approximately 11,200 French citizens living in the United States. ?By 1798, the French Revolution had taken hold in France causing many French citizens to flee to the United States; the number of French citizens living in the United States was estimated to have grown to 25,000. ?As rumors of French invasion and enemy spies living in the United States spread, fear took hold of the young American nation. In order to calm the fears of American citizens, Congress quickly passed laws in 1798 to make the United States more secure; these were known as the Alien and Sedition Acts.
