Politics

Hamiltonians admired the way England ran its government and wished to do the same. He did not consider the common people as capable to vote, so there were hight voting qualifications. He also
strengthened the central government, and wanted an expanding bureaucracy. And sometimes did restricted the the press.

Jeffersonians was a totaly different man, who favored a form of government that was more democratic than that of England, and who thought that common people sould also vote. He also conserved state rights and reduced the number of federal officeholders. Unlike Hamilton, he did not care about the media. As he was first vice president he had to follow the example of George Washington, but he also had the chance to become allies of Great Brittan and France. These were some hard times.
A political party is an organization that tries to gain political power.

In March 4th 1801 Thomas Jefferson was elected as third president of the United States of America. On January 8 1802 a convention between the United States and Brittan regarding the treaty of 1794 is concluded, and as a result the United States owes Brittan 2, 664, 000 citizens, and on April 14 the notorious natruralization laws of 1798 are replaced. On the day of December 5th 1804 Jefferson is officially reelected as president and his vice president was George Clinton.
