Burr almost got him.

[@owlnyc666]

Would he be a contemporary Republican or Democrat? I think Democrat. Hamilton wanted a unitary government. He wanted the president and the senators to serve for life. He thought that the "model" government was Great with the Monarchy , the House Of Lords. He chose Republican form of government Modeled after the Roman Empire. NOT a Democracy modeled after Athens. Hamilton was a PLATIONIST. And Plato, Soccrates and Aristole and they did not trust the undereducated commoners to rule. It was the ignorant mob that convicted and sentenced Soccrates to commit suicide. And their was the mob of Shay's rebellion. Which struck fear and terror into the hearts of the wealhy-educated ELITE. 🤔😉😏

Brilliant explanation. I've heard that the federalist papers are an essential reading if one is to understand thoroughly the structure of the constitution, and thus, the structure of the US government, and I wanted to find a nice explanation of the context within which the federalist papers were written. This video did just that! Mr. Richey is a wonderful instructor! I will definitely have to look at more of his instructions.

[@ryanluna7322]

to much freedom of each state, leads to potential division, too much division = civil unrest, and guess a dictator ship would be bad if your one of the few who fall outside the lines of what they want, but like a military or any social group, without some level of direction and control people fall apart, and to much delegation leads to everything going slow or stagnating or people fighting and no one gets anywhere, feel the constitution is more than enough rules, if you add in the religions and common outlook of the day, mean stuff they left out of the constitution to them woulda been seen as common sense even under the old rule, and they were christian, so allot of that to them wouldnt need to have been said, but would still have been part of the original outlook, stuff such as murder/ or adultry ect ect, they didnt need to add but there was a time when all of it was punished, feel if it wasnt for the unwritten rules of the time and they added everything they thought or we try to interpret what they meant, certain stuff would be added, mean they say right to bear dosnt mean private guns? but then its like you know they didnt really like same sex couples back then eather right?but common outlook back then made it not something your need to say. so if we go by anything other than the literal meaning of what they said, and go by what they may have meant theres allot of stuff that should be banned way before firearms

[@stevewise1656]

@@ryanluna7322"they were Christians." That's not true by any stretch. Most were agnostic, atheist, or didn't believe God had anything to do with what was happening on earth from day to day. This is why our government was constructed to be separate from church and state/government. Your thesis seems to be they believed stating anything about Christianity in the Constitution or not writing anything in the Constitution was a given at the time. How does that square with the separation of church and state? It doesn't. Facts don't have two sides.

[@DanielWSonntag]

That's what I've heard

[@thefreeman8791]

We can all read the Federalist Papers for ourselves and say here is what Hamilton says in #11 or something like that. But the bigger and more important question is what influence did they have on ratification itself? Did the delegates of the states read the Federalist papers and be like we agree to that and ratify the Constitution because they were convinced by the Federalist Papers? Mostly, the answer to that is no. Outside of NY, the Federalist Papers were not widely published and where they were they were mostly ignored by locals who tended to pay attention to their own leaders over an anonymously written letter. However, James Wilson gives a speech in November of 1787 and that is immediately published in major newspapers in 12 of the 13 states and it was distributed in booklet form to make it easier to spread. That was never done with the Federalist Papers. I am not saying that they are not important. I am just saying that people act like they had a profound influence on the ratification process as if a delegate in GA read an anonymous written letter published in a NY news paper and said yeah I am gonna vote for ratification because of this anonymous letter. That did not really happen. They had an incredibly amount of influence in NY but James Wilson's speech had much more influence outside of NY.

[@plouismarie]

As explained in the video the papers were aiming not only but mainly NY , so it worked. Also Thomas Jefferson himself hailed The Federalist Papers as the best commentary ever written about the principles of government. That’s a nice confirmation of the appreciation it has generated.

[@イッゼィセブ]

For anyone interested, it's the Indigenous (native American) tribes that created what we consider our modern democracy today and our united States constitution. If you don't know what I'm talking about: Research Hiawatha's Wampum Belt and his ideas about bringing the 6 nations of the Haudenosaunee (People of the Longhouse... The Iroquois Confederacy) who, together, created -what would be transplanted as- our 3 branches of government. They thought of it first. Benjamin Franklin, who spent lots of time with the Confederacy of the Iroquois, wrote about his experiences with them and their ideas about governing before the founders even started writing any democratic document.

[@ArmchairRamb0]

This is a very good summary of several very important concepts. thanks

[@mickeywood3012]

Young Adults, Federalists are what Jefferson warned Americans about. “He” (Jefferson) became suspicious of all around him, for he regarded the indifference of the people to the struggles of the French, their old allies, as an evil omen. He had scarcely taken his seat in the Cabinet before he declared that some of his colleagues held decidedly monarchical views; and the belief became fixed in his mind that there was a party in the United States continually at work, secretly and sometimes openly, for the overthrow of republicanism here. This idea became a sort of monomania and haunted him until his death more than thirty years afterward. From Benson Lossing, Our Country.

[@Loganvbills]

And now we are living it with the uniparty at odds against the people, at odds against the constitution, and especially doing everything they can to disarm the people and divide us in such a manor that we no longer vote on policy, rather, we vote on emotion controlled via media fear mongering. I'm still weary of Trump, myself, but I see in the people who support him that they want liberty back. They want the people to have control again and trust that Trump has the same goal. If it fails, I do believe there will be only one final option for our freedoms...

[@MrDan11422]

The way I understand this, it basically means the federal government has more power than the state government. If I'm wrong let me know.

[@georgethebugeater7950]

It means that the state government and the federal government are separate, and state laws trump federal. So technically the federal government is more powerful as a whole, but state does not have to follow federal. This is from my understanding.

[@N0B0DY_SP3C14L]

I might go so far as to say that The Federalist Papers were basically a tool of psychological warfare to intellectually crush any arguments against adopting a national constitution, spelling out who would have what powers, and how accountability would be shifted away from such centralized accumulations of power. It's actually kind of painful to read critically, and it was very much intended to be so. That being said, they are a powerful, yet often ignored guide for how the actual wording of the Constitution are to be interpreted and understood. All too often, members of all three branches have ignored the Federalist papers, and decided to use their own arbitrary twistings of the language to further their own agendas. Perfect examples can be seen by looking no further than the NFA of 1934. "Shall not be infringed." means exactly that, but far too many toxic and power-hungry pieces of garbage masquerading as humans have decided that said definitions should be loosened to provide for government exceptionalism, immunity, and further descent toward tyranny. Personally, I think both the Federalist Papers and The Declaration need revisiting, and a serious reconsideration of how our laws have been perverted, deciding how to address that, and then implementing said decision.
