Britain had its tories, whigs, etc., and so it was natural that a similar landscape would also emerge in the new nation, IMO quite irrespective of individual actors such as Jefferson and Hamilton. | |
| Feb 5, 2013 at 17:18 | comment | added | MCW♦ | Washington spent much of his time and energy mediating between his two cabinet members who each devoted considerable effort to undermining the other. I think it overstates the case that Washington favored Hamilton. | |
