Question for Jeff Pasley's section, 11/9/06
Sorry for the delay. I was a little preoccupied with the election yesterday.
As I said last week, we are going to discuss Charlotte Temple tomorrow, providing that people have actually read it. You should look at the paper questions I posted here and here.
We also need to talk some about the Jefferson-Hamilton conflict. Which of the first parties would you have supported, Hamilton's Federalists or Jefferson's (Democratic)-Republicans? Whose politics have been more influential in the long run? (In other words, what connections do you see between Hamilton or Jefferson and modern-day politics?)

I believe that Hamilton's Federalists views were the most influential in the long run. He wanted to develop a stronger economy and have it based industrially. Jefferson on the other hand wanted an agricultural based economy. We have the industrial based economy now so in the long run Hamilton's views outweight those of Jefferson's.
