1 Launching the New Ship of State
2 Troubled Times for US Government Americans distrusted authority and government Had overthrown British and Articles of Confederation American finances in bad shape Little money coming in through taxes Huge amount of public debt Worthless paper money in circulation; metal money scarce Republican government over wide area 18 th century political theory considered this impossible
3 Growing Pains Population Doubling every 25 years million people lived in US Cities growing, although most people (90%) lived in rural areas Most people (95%) lived east of Appalachian mountains
4 Growing Pains Trans-Appalachian population Only 5% of the population Concentrated in Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio First trans-appalachian territories to become states (within 14 years) Not very loyal to US Shipped agricultural products down Mississippi (mouth controlled by Spanish) Tempted by Spanish (and British) promises of independence, if they broke with US
5 Washington for President George Washington Unanimously elected president by electoral college Only nominee ever to be elected unanimously Preferred farming at Mount Vernon to being president Only president who did not want to be president April 30, 1789 took oath of office in New York City (temporary capital of US)
6 Washington for President Washington s cabinet Constitution only says president may require written opinions of heads of executive branch departments Cabinet evolved into group that held meetings and discussed policy under Washington Only 3 department heads under Washington Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton Secretary of War Henry Knox
7 The Bill of Rights Antifederalists had criticized Constitution because it didn t have bill of rights Some states had supported Constitution with understanding that bill of rights would be included later
8 The Bill of Rights Amendments to the Constitution could be proposed in 2 ways New constitutional convention requested by 2/3 of states 2/3 vote of both houses of Congress Madison chose to write amendments for bill of rights and propose them through Congress Did not want to open new constitutional convention when federalists had just barely won the last one
9 Amending the Constitution
10 The Bill of Rights amendments passed 3/4 of state legislatures and became law Freedom of religion, speech, press Right to bear arms Right to trial by jury Right to assemble and petition for redress of grievances Prohibition of cruel and unusual punishment Prohibition of arbitrary government seizure of private property
11 The Bill of Rights 9 th Amendment Guard against assumption that list of rights were the only ones protected Specification of certain rights did not deny or disparage other rights retained by the people
12 The Bill of Rights 10 th Amendment Reserved all rights not explicitly delegated or prohibited by the Constitution to the States respectively, or to the people
13 The Bill of Rights Judiciary Act of 1789 Organized the Supreme Court with a chief justice and 5 associate justices (6 total) Organized federal district and circuit courts Established the office of attorney general
14 Hamilton Revives the Corpse of Public Credit Secretary of Treasury Alexander Hamilton Genius, but not fully trusted by many because he openly favored aristocratic government Interfered in others departments, especially bitter rival Thomas Jefferson, secretary of state
15 Hamilton Revives the Corpse of Public Credit Hamilton s financial goals for US Fix economic problems from Articles of Confederation Favor wealthy groups so that they would lend money and political support to government Prosperity would trickle down from upper to lower classes
16 Hamilton Revives the Corpse of Public Credit Hamilton strengthening the national credit Believed US government needed confidence of people (especially wealthy) Pushed Congress to pay off entire national debt ($54 million) at face value Speculators had bought bonds up at low prices Government bonds had depreciated to cents because most didn t believe government would be able to pay them back Pushed for Congress to assume states debts ($21.5 million) from Revolution
17 Hamilton Revives the Corpse of Public Credit Pushed Congress to pay off entire national debt ($54 million) at face value Speculators had bought bonds up at low prices Government bonds had depreciated to cents because most didn t believe government would be able to pay them back
18 Hamilton Revives the Corpse of Public Credit Pushed for Congress to assume states debts ($21.5 million) Justifiable since they had been incurred while fighting Revolution Hamilton primarily wanted to strengthen US States would be more supportive of national government Rich creditors would support national government (to get their money paid back)
19 Hamilton Revives the Corpse of Public Credit State reaction to Hamilton s assumption plan States with large debts (like Massachusetts) supported plan States with small debts (like Virginia) did not District of Columbia Virginia wanted this federal district (authorized in Constitution, but had not been decided on yet) for commerce and prestige In return, Virginia supported assumption, and it passed
20 Customs Duties and Excise Taxes Under Hamilton s plan, national debt was now $75 million Could have avoided $13 million in back interest and state debts Hamilton s true objective for national debt was to strengthen US The more creditors the government owed money to, the more people with interest in making sure government worked
21 Customs Duties and Excise Taxes Tariffs on foreign trade Tariff tax on imports Hamilton s plan to pay down the debt Hamilton s and Congress s way of protecting weak American industry from foreign (especially British) competition 1789 first tariff law of small 8% duty Hamilton pushed for higher tariffs, but Congress (dominated by agricultural interests) only slightly increased tariff after 1789
22 Customs Duties and Excise Taxes Internal taxes (within US) Additional pay down debt 1791 Congress passed excise tax on a few items Worst was.7 cents per gallon on whiskey, paid primarily by distillers (hurt rural farmers the most)
23 Hamilton's Financial Structure Supported by Revenues
24 Hamilton Battles Jefferson for a Bank Hamilton s bank Admired British Bank of England Proposed powerful private institution, with government as majority stockholder Government would deposit money from federal treasury there Would stimulate economy by remaining in circulation (available for loans and investment) Would print paper money and provide stable currency
25 Hamilton Battles Jefferson for a Bank Jefferson opposed to bank Washington asked for Jefferson s written opinion Jefferson held to strict construction (interpretation) of Constitution No specific authorization in Constitution Powers not specifically granted to US, reserved for states Therefore, states had power to authorize banks, not national government
26 Hamilton Battles Jefferson for a Bank Hamilton s reply to Jefferson Also requested by Washington Hamilton held to loose construction (interpretation) of Constitution Anything Constitution did not forbid it permitted Jefferson believed exactly the opposite Used necessary and proper ( elastic ) clause (Article I) Government explicitly authorized to collect taxes and regulate trade Bank would help government carry out these powers Therefore, bank was implied ( implied powers ) in other explicit powers
27 Hamilton Battles Jefferson for a Bank Fight over bank exposed differences between North and South Industrial North supported bank Agricultural South did not
28 Hamilton Battles Jefferson for a Bank Hamilton s view prevailed Washington signed Bank of US into law 1791 bank created by Congress Chartered for 20 years Located at Philadelphia Capital of $10 million 1/5 of bank owned by federal government Stock sold out quickly in public sale
29 Mutinous Moonshiners in Pennsylvania Importance of whiskey to rural communities Bad roads forced many farmers to convert grain to alcohol for easier and cheaper shipping to east Whiskey used as money on frontier
30 Mutinous Moonshiners in Pennsylvania Hamilton s excise tax on whisky hurt rural farmers Not a tax on luxury but as burden on necessity and form of money 1794 Whiskey Rebellion Distillers tarred and feathered revenue officers, stopping collections Cried for Liberty and No Excise
31 Mutinous Moonshiners in Pennsylvania Washington brought militia from several states to stop Whiskey Rebellion Question whether men from other states would unite to fight another state Army of 13,000 did march to Pennsylvania Rebels dispersed when they heard troops were coming 2 convicted for rebellion; Washington pardoned them Increased power of national government, although some criticized Washington s brutality
32 The Emergence of Political Parties Hamilton succeeding in giving more power to central government, at expense of states Hamilton s successes led to divisions States rights versus federal power Grew from personal feud between Jefferson and Hamilton to full-blown political rivalry
33 The Emergence of Political Parties Parties vs. factions Organized political partied did not exist during Washington s first term Political divisions (Whigs and Tories, federalists and antifederalists) were factions Groups who opposed each other and fought over specific issues Disbanded after issue had gone away
34 The Emergence of Political Parties Founders had not anticipated existence of parties Organized opposition to the democratic government seemed disloyal
35 The Emergence of Political Parties 1790s Jefferson and Madison began organizing against Hamilton Worked in Congress only Did not anticipate creation of popular party Party system began to take form As opposition to Hamilton grew and newspapers brought ordinary citizens in
36 The Emergence of Political Parties The party system Competition for power between 2 parties important for sound democracy Opposition party makes sure the other one doesn t go too far from wishes of people
37 The Impact of the French Revolution 1793 political parties formed Democratic-Republicans (Jeffersonian) Federalists (Hamiltonian) Foreign policy made differences between parties even more pronounced
38 The Impact of the French Revolution 1789 French Revolution began 26 years before Europe would finally be at peace Left significant impact on US and rest of Western world
39 The Impact of the French Revolution Early stages of French Revolution Peaceful attempt to limit power of King Louis XVI Americans supported this as imitation of American Revolution (except for a few ultraconservative Federalists)
40 The Impact of the French Revolution 1792 France declared war on Austria Austria fought to return king to France and prevent democratic revolutionary ideas from spreading Late in 1792, France defeated Austria Americans celebrated Austria s defeat
41 The Impact of the French Revolution 1793 French Revolution grew radical King beheaded Reign of Terror began (ending in 1794) 40,000 people killed
42 The Impact of the French Revolution American reaction to radicalism of French Revolution Federalists turned against Revolution overnight Jeffersonians regret killing, but accept killing of some aristocrats in furtherance of human freedom
43 The Impact of the French Revolution Impact of French Revolution Britain brought into conflict (allied with Austria to fight France) Came to involve conflict between European powers for control of Atlantic Brought US and rest of world into conflict
44 Washington s Neutrality Proclamation Alliance of 1778 between France and America still on the books Was to last forever Obligated US to defend West Indies (where Britain was certain to attack)
45 Washington s Neutrality Proclamation Democratic-Republicans wanted to honor treaty Sided with France over recent enemy Britain Argued US owed France its freedom
46 Washington s Neutrality Proclamation Washington (backed by Hamilton) resisted Believed US had to avoid conflicts with Europe for 1 2 generations, so that American strength and numbers (through high birthrate) could be built up Believed that if US entered European wars (to defend its rights on Atlantic) it would possibly be defeated or significantly hurt
47 Washington s Neutrality Proclamation Neutrality Proclamation of 1793 Issued right after war started between Britain and France Proclaimed US government s strict neutrality Warned American citizens to be neutral toward both sides Influenced spread of isolationist feelings among many Americans Angered many Democratic-Republicans Betrayal of France Announced by Washington without consultation of Congress
48 Washington s Neutrality Proclamation Citizen Edmond Genêt April 1793 ambassador from France; arrived in Charleston, South Carolina Received enthusiastically by many Democratic- Republicans in South Genêt mistakenly believed that most Americans did not support Neutrality Proclamation Worked to recruit Americans to invade Spanish Florida and Louisiana and British Canada 1794 Washington demanded Genêt be replaced
49 Citizen Genêt
50 Washington s Neutrality Proclamation Neutrality Proclamation showed alliances are always based on self-interest 1778 both France and America gained from alliance 1793 only France would gain, so alliance did not happen US didn t technically violate 1778 alliance because France never called on them
51 Washington s Neutrality Proclamation American neutrality favored France French West Indies needed food from US If US had entered war on side of France, Britain would have blockaded American coast, cutting off supplies No blockade meant US could continue shipping to France s colonies
52 Embroilments with Britain British kept 7 forts on northern border between US and Canada Violation of 1783 Treaty of Paris Reluctant to give up profitable fur trade Wanted Indian buffer between Canada and US
53 American Posts Held by the British After 1783
54 Embroilments with Britain Miami Confederacy 8 Indian nations allied with British British provided Indians with guns and alcohol Indians saw Ohio River as US s northern boundary (and their southern boundary) US generals Harmar and St. Clair defeated by Indians
55 Embroilments with Britain 1794 Battle of Fallen Timbers General Mad Anthony Wayne defeated Miamis British refused to shelter fleeing Indians August 1795 Treaty of Greenville Indians gave up huge tracts of land (Indiana and Ohio) Indians received $20,000 and annual payment of $9,000 Indians could continue to hunt on lands they had given up Indians hoped treaty put limits on white expansion
56 Treaty of Greenville
57 Embroilments with Britain British attacks on US shipping Blockaded French West Indies Seized 300 US ships and impressed US seamen into service on British ships; other US sailors imprisoned
58 Embroilments with Britain US reaction to British violations on sea Jeffersonians called for war (or at least embargo) against Britain Federalists resisted Jeffersonian demands Wanted US to develop trade and industry; depended on Britain for this Did not want destructive war with most powerful country
59 Jay s Treaty and Washington s Farewell 1794 Washington sent Chief Justice John Jay to London to negotiate treaty Last attempt to avoid war Jeffersonians feared pro-british Jay would sell out US Jay s negotiations sabotaged by Hamilton Feared war with Britain, so he told British details of Jay s negotiating strategy Jay got few concessions from Britain
60 Jay s Treaty and Washington s Farewell Jay Treaty British promised to evacuate 7 forts on US soil and promised to pay damages for seized American ships British did not promise anything about future ship seizures or impressments or about supplying arms to Indians Americans promised to repay debts owed to British merchants from before Revolution
61 Jay s Treaty and Washington s Farewell Jay Treaty enraged Jeffersonian Democratic- Republicans Treaty seemed to be complete surrender to Britain Hurt South (who had to pay larger share of debts) while North was helped (by being repaid for lost ships) Jeffersonian mobs hanged, burned and guillotined in effigy (a crude figure or dummy representing a hated person or group) John Jay
62 Jay Burned in Effigy by Anti- British Americans
63 Jay s Treaty and Washington s Farewell Pinckney s Treaty of 1795 Spain quickly agreed to most US terms because of fear of closer Anglo-American alliance US granted free navigation of Mississippi and large disputed area north of Florida
64 Main Centers of Spanish and British Influence After 1783
65 Jay s Treaty and Washington s Farewell 1796 Washington chose to retire 2-term tradition for US presidents until broken by FDR in nd Amendment (ratified 1951) made 2 terms part of Constitution
66 Jay s Treaty and Washington s Farewell Washington s farewell address Published in newspapers, not spoken Warned against permanent alliances Did not oppose all alliances, but advised making them temporary Did this advice (to a weak nation) apply to strong nation later?
67 Jay s Treaty and Washington s Farewell Washington s importance Fiscal health and strength of government established Settlement to west and sea trade expanding Most importantly, had kept US out of foreign wars
68 John Adams Becomes President Election of 1796 Federalists nominated Washington s vice president, John Adams Hamilton too unpopular with many people because of financial policies (seemed to favor rich) Democratic-Republicans nominated Jefferson
69 John Adams Becomes President Bitter campaign of 1796 Federalists and Democratic-Republicans bitterly attacked each other Respect for Washington had put some restraints on partisan attacks Issues focused heavily on personalities Democratic-Republicans attacked Federalists for brutality during Whiskey Rebellion and Jay Treaty
70 John Adams Becomes President Results of the election of 1796 John Adams narrowly won election (71 to 68 votes in Electoral College) Jefferson became Adams vice president Under Constitution, 1 election for president and vice president; each elector had 2 votes; runner-up became vice president Changed by 12 th Amendment in 1804 Now 2 separate elections (1 for president, 1 for vice president)
71 Electoral Vote, Election of 1796 Presidential Candidate Party Home State Popular Vote (a) Count Percentage Electoral Vote John Adams Federalist Massachusetts 35, % 71 Thomas Jefferson Republican Virginia 31, % 68 Thomas Pinckney Federalist South Carolina 59 Aaron Burr Republican New York 30 Samuel Adams Republican Massachusetts 15 Oliver Ellsworth Federalist Connecticut 11 George Clinton Republican New York 7 John Jay Federalist New York 5 James Iredell Federalist North Carolina 3 George Washington (none) Virginia 2 John Henry Republican Maryland 2 Samuel Johnston Charles Cotesworth Pinckney Federalist Federalist North Carolina South Carolina 2 1 Total 66, % 276 Needed to win 70
72 Election of 1796
73 John Adams Becomes President John Adams personality Fat (called His Rotundity ), short (5 7 ) Stern and stubborn intellectual aristocrat Not well-liked by mass of Americans
74 John Adams Becomes President Adams enemies Could not hope to measure up to Washington Hamilton (who hated Adams) headed High Federalists (opposed to Adams) Had resigned from Treasury in 1795 Even plotted with members of Adams cabinet against him Inherited a violent fight with France that might lead to war
75 Unofficial Fighting with France French angered by Jay Treaty First step to US-British alliance Violation of Franco-American Treaty of 1778 French retaliation Began seizing US merchant ships (300 by mid-1797) Refused to receive US diplomat and even threatened him with arrest
76 Unofficial Fighting with France XYZ Affair Adams wanted to avoid war, following Washington 1797 Adams sent 3 men to reach agreement with French Hoped to meet with Charles de Talleyrand, French foreign minister Met by 3 go-betweens (called X, Y, and Z) Demanded loan of $12 million and bribe of $250,000 to talk to Talleyrand (bribes were standard procedure in Europe) American negotiators refused terms and left Europe Hailed as heroes in US upon return
77 Unofficial Fighting with France US reaction to XYZ Affair War hysteria swept US (even to Adams) Millions for defense, but not one cent for tribute. Politically beneficial for pro-british Federalists Most Jeffersonians (except for most committed) condemned French action also
78 Unofficial Fighting with France War preparations in US In spite of some opposition in Congress by Democratic-Rebublicans Navy Department created Small navy expanded US Marine Corps reestablished Originally created in 1775, but disbanded New army of 10,000 men authorized
79 Unofficial Fighting with France undeclared naval war between France and US Principally conducted in West Indies US navy captured 80 French ships, although several hundred US ships captured by French Slight push might bring US and France to full-scale war
80 Adams Puts Patriotism Above Party French do not want war with US Already fighting war against powerful Britain and Austria Britain brought closer to US than again for many years Talleyrand made it known that he would accept new US diplomat
81 Adams Puts Patriotism Above Party Adams decision Full war, with US capturing Florida and Louisiana, would bring power and popularity to himself and Federalist party In spite of this, he knew US was not ready for full war with a European power Early 1799 submitted name of new minister to France to Senate Hamilton and High Federalists enraged; Jeffersonians and most reasonable Federalists supported Adams
82 Adams Puts Patriotism Above Party US s 3 ambassadors received by France Napoleon had just taken power of dictator Wanted to stop fighting with America and concentrate on Europe (and possibly form empire in Louisiana Convention of 1800 France agreed to annul Franco-American Treaty of 1778 US agreed to pay damages to American shippers (caused by French attacks)
83 Adams Puts Patriotism Above Party Importance of Adams in dealing with France Avoided war with France Prepared way for Louisiana Purchase (1803) Extremely important to future of US Adams unappreciated by Americans at the time
84 The Federalist Witch Hunt 1798 Alien and Sedition Acts rammed through Congress Federalists used their increased popularity (during anti-french and therefore anti- Jeffersonian period) Supposedly to protect US during war with France; in reality designed to weaken Jeffersonians
85 The Federalist Witch Hunt Naturalization Act Most European immigrants were poor and supported Democratic-Republicans (less prosperous, more democratic) Raised residence requirement for aliens (noncitizens) from 5 to 14 years
86 The Federalist Witch Hunt Alien Enemies Act President could deport or imprison any foreigners during time of war (without proof or guilt) Alien Friends Act President could deport any foreigners whose activities he considered dangerous (without proof or guilt) during time of peace Never enforced, but both Alien Acts gave president arbitrary and excessive power
87 The Federalist Witch Hunt Sedition Act Sedition to conduct or language inciting rebellion against the authority of a state Anyone who impeded policies of government or falsely damaged reputation of officials (including president) subject to fine or imprisonment Many indicted and 10 people brought to trial under Sedition Act All 10 were convicted by packed juries and pro-federalist judges
88 The Federalist Witch Hunt Supreme Court (dominated by Federalists) refused to declare Sedition Act unconstitutional Federalists wrote law to expire in 1801 (so it couldn t be used against them) Sedition Act probably drove many to Democratic-Republican party Many others supported Alien and Sedition Acts congressional elections Federalists won strong victory over Democratic-Republicans
89 The Virginia (Madison) and Kentucky (Jefferson) Resolutions Jefferson feared if Federalists could become 1-party dictatorship Choke off free speech might lead to end of other constitutional rights Jefferson and Madison wrote resolutions adopted by legislatures in Kentucky and Virginia opposing Alien and Sedition Acts Jefferson s more radical than Madison s
90 The Virginia (Madison) and Kentucky (Jefferson) Resolutions Jefferson and Madison stressed compact theory of government 13 sovereign states had made compact (contract) when they formed federal government Federal government seen as creation of states States therefore final judges of whether the federal government had broken the contract Jefferson charged federal government had exceeded its authority with Alien and Sedition Acts nullification (refusal to accept them) was the rightful remedy
91 The Virginia (Madison) and Kentucky (Jefferson) Resolutions Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions not adopted by any other states Some Federalist states added strong condemnations
92 The Virginia (Madison) and Kentucky (Jefferson) Resolutions Federalist arguments against resolutions People not the states had made the original compact Supreme Court not the states had right to nullify unconstitutional laws passed by Congress Adopted by Supreme Court in 1803 (Marbury v. Madison)
93 The Virginia (Madison) and Kentucky (Jefferson) Resolutions Longstanding impact of resolutions Extreme states rights view of Union Longer lasting impact than authors had intended Used by South to support nullification and eventually secession Did not intend to break up the union, just stop Federalist abuses of power
94 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Sharp divisions between Federalists and Democratic-Republicans Election of 1800 provided stark choice for voters
95 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Federalists background Generally federalists (who had supported Constitution) Led by Hamilton Primarily from northeastern Atlantic seaboard and merchants, manufacturers, shippers
96 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Federalists and government Wanted strong central government, able to crush democratic excesses (like Shays Rebellion), protect rich, promote foreign trade Advocated rule by best people Those who own the country ought to govern it. John Jay Feared democracy and rule by commoners
97 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Federalists and foreign policy Hamilton believed in strong government to expand US commerce and trade Foreign trade (especially with Britain) very important
98 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Democratic-Republicans (Republicans) background Generally anti-federalists (who had not supported Constitution) Led by Jefferson Primarily small farmers, middle class, underprivileged, laborers, artisans, small shopkeepers
99 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Jefferson s was bundle of contradictions Virginia aristocrat and slave owner who lived in mansion should have been a Federalist Master political organizer through ability to appeal to underclass (Democratic- Republicans)
100 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Democratic-Republicans and government Wanted weak central government (best government was one that governed least) Most power should stay with states, not federal government People, closer to state governments, could prevent tyranny Central authority kept to minimum through strict interpretation of Constitution National debt should be paid off
101 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Democratic-Republicans and classes Believed in no special privileges for groups (especially manufacturers) Agriculture was most important branch of economy
102 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Democratic-Republicans and democracy Voting only for white males literate enough to inform themselves and vote intelligently Universal education important for voters Would lead to universal (male) suffrage For his time, Jefferson was very open-minded Faith in properly educated masses and their collective wisdom
103 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Democratic-Republicans and land Jefferson feared property-less dependents would be politically manipulated by landowners Reconciled slavery with more democratic feelings Slavery allowed white southern yeomen (farmer who cultivates his own land) to be independent Whites would not have to work for large landowners on plantations
104 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans Democratic-Republicans and foreign policy Generally pro-french Favored liberal democracy of French Revolution (before it turned violent) over the conservative British government Favored increasing democracy in US, especially in frontier beyond Appalachians
105 Federalist Versus Democratic- Republicans 1790s conflicts between 2 parties opened question of whether US would survive Election of 1800 danger was that US would be destroyed by conflict
