George Washington = our first president He didn t want to do the job Knox = secretary of war (cabinet member) Hamilton = secretary of treasury Jefferson secretary of state Hamilton and Jefferson were both strong patriots, served in the Revolution and both were brilliant

6 11.1 Introduction Both were very different Hamilton: dressed with care, doer moved from task to task, moved with precision Jefferson: sloppy clothes, slouched, thinker and took his time to explore ideas They were great rivals developed nation s first political parties

24 Jefferson: Britain and France Most Americans favored French Revolution until it turned violent Most Republicans supported France A few noble heads was a small price to pay for freedom Federalists cursed the Republicans for their loyalty to France Edmond Genet: came to the US as a representative from France Called him Citizen Mission was to convince the US to join France against Britain in the war

25 Jefferson: Britain and France Republicans welcomed him He became full of himself though as the cheering crowds grew Washington did not want to be drawn in the war and did not welcome him Genet began attacking Washington and Genet tried to get others to attack him too It became too much and Washington and his supporters decided Genet had to go

26 11.6 John Adams By 1796, 3 rd election, political parties influenced the election process Republicans wanted Jefferson South and West Federalists wanted Adams lawyers, merchants and ship owners and business people Electoral votes counted Adams wins by 3, Jefferson comes in 2 nd they are opposing parties

27 Alien and Sedition Acts Tried to work closely at first but didn t work Federalists passed 4 laws Alien and Sedition Acts protect country from people like Citizen Genet Really wanted to make life difficult for the Republicans Aimed at aliens (noncitizens) 1. lengthened time it took to become a citizen 2. Allowed the president to jail or deport aliens who were suspected of stirring up trouble These laws frightened people

28 Alien and Sedition Acts Sedition a crime to encourage rebellion against the government Printing, writing or speaking in a scandalous or malicious way against the government Hamilton approved of this Was used to punish Republican newspaper editors who delighted in insulting Adams

29 Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions Republicans viewed this as an attack on free speech Thought the states needed to step up Jefferson and Madison drew up a set of resolutions or statements opposing these acts Argued congress had taken too much power and the states should nullify them State s rights Only Virginia and Kentucky adopted the resolutions

30 New Capital 1800 moved to Washington DC Finally had a permanent home

33 Election of 1800 Republicans back Jefferson Aaron Burr runs for VP Federalists choose John Adams run for presdient and Charles Pinckney of South Carolina for VP Some Federalists wanted Hamilton but he couldn t run Candidates outlined the issues early Jefferson - supported states rights frugal and simple Adams peace and prosperity Run on insults than issues Republicans accused Adams of being a tyrant and accused him of turning the nation into a monarchy

34 Election of 1800 Federalists called Jefferson an atheist and said he d destroy the religion and loosen the bonds of society Hamilton refused to support Adams Federalist are divided Hamilton tried to get people to vote for Pinckney for president Hamilton knew Pinckney would listen to him

35 Deadlock Adams lost the election not sure who won Each elector casts 2 votes. 1 st place is president; 2 nd place is VP All of the Republicans voted for Jefferson and Burr tie between them Sends the tie to the House of Rep. to break it Each state has one vote Burr should have told his supporters to vote for Jefferson as his party wanted but he was hoping to win

36 Deadlock House voted another tie 6 days, 35 ballots Hamilton breaks the tie Asked the supporters of him to vote for Jefferson he was the lesser of 2 evils said Hamilton th amendment prevents ties and has electoral college cast separate votes for president and VP Peaceful transition of power
