    New England Federalists did not have any reason to trust the decisions of the Democratic-Republican party along with Thomas Jefferson or James Madison.

Public support of the parties is somewhat forced by lack of choice, clearly shown by the steady decline in voter turnout since the 1960s (DelReal).…

    There were two different parties in politics in the early days of America; the Federalists and the Democratic-Republicans. The Federalists believed in “loose constriction” of the Constitution, were against slavery, wanted a strong national government, and were allied with Great Britain. The Republicans believed in “strict constriction” of the Constitution, thought slavery was essential to the country, favored state government over national government, and were allied with France. They had competing viewpoints that led to an ideological split between the nation. The factors that led to an ideological split between the Federalist and Republicans from 1791-1815 were the creation of the Bank of the United States, the organization of President and Vice President, and their differing views on foreign policy.…

For instance, in Mother Jones’s recent article “The Trump Deportation Regime Has Begun” we learn about the recent deportation sweeps of immigrants that occurred throughout cities in Southern California. This recent event is a primary example of value trade-offs such as order versus freedom, order versus equality, and freedom versus equality in politics. Order versus freedom is a prime example of government as the legitimate use of force to control human behavior, otherwise known as the original dilemma.…
