    This essay is on Strict vs. Loose construction during the presidencies of Madison and Jefferson

    In the early days of the United States of America when the country was beginning to grow under the newly ratified Constitution, there were two main political parties in existence, the Federalists and the Jeffersonian Republicans. From the time period of 1801-1817, the two presidents that were elected to rule the U.S. were Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. Both Jefferson and Madison were Jeffersonian Republicans who were characterized as strict-constructionists in respect to the federal constitution before they each took the office of the presidency, but when they took office the public found out that Jefferson and Madison's previous characterizations had not been very accurate when, as president, they began to act like the opposite of what they originally believed in.…

    The Evolution of the Republican Party Between 1800 and 1824

    The first three Republican presidents, Thomas Jefferson (1801–09), James Madison (1809–17), and James Monroe (1817–25) were all wealthy, aristocratic southern planters; all three shared the same liberal political philosophy (Brown, 2012).

    Jefferson and Madison Presidencies

    During the presidencies of Jefferson and Madison (1801-1817), a dual political party government was starting to form. In the Constitution, which was made in 1787, it is portrayed Jeffersonian Republicans as strict constructionists and Federalists as broad ones. It is true that the Democratic-Republicans believed in the strict construction of the constitution and a weaker federal government, thinking that if there were high concentration of central government, it would lead to a loss of individual and state rights. Madison and Jefferson were two members of this political party, with Jefferson being known as the founder and leader of it. The Federalists, on the other hand, believed that a stronger central government was needed and the Articles of Confederation were too weak.…

    Jefferson Outfederalized the Federalists

    After the election of 1800, the Democratic-Republican candidate, Thomas Jefferson, was elected as president. Well-known as a supporter of states rights and an agrarian society, Jefferson felt the need to reduce the differences between the two parties and did much to accomplish this through his two terms. Although Jefferson was elected as a Democratic-Republican, through his term he adopted many Federalist's views in order to do what was best for the common good. In a way, Jefferson did out-federalize the federalists by taking their arguments he felt were strong enough to be supported by the public and were best for the common good.…

    War Of 1812 DBQ

    The reasons for the War of 1812 were twofold. First, the impressment of American sailors challenged American neutrality and national pride. Second, War Hawks, such as Henry Clay and John C. Calhoun, wanted to use the war as a means for expansion into British Canada and for the removal of the prevailing Indian threat. Even though the war resulted in an indecisive victory, Americans celebrated because they survived their second war with the British and even defeated them at naval duels and at the Battle of New Orleans. This victory immediately led to a rise in nationalism. However, the war’s lasting effects included a rise in sectionalism, which ultimately contributed to the Civil War. Because the lasting effects had a longer and more profound…
