Election of 1796 VS. Federalist: John Adams Democratic – Republican: Thomas Jefferson

Description GW Warns of… Political Parities Federalists Candidate: John Adams Democratic-Republican Candidate: Thomas Jefferson

Which area of the country voted for Adams? Which area of the country voted for Jefferson? What does this show us about America in 1796?

Who Wins? Why? Federalist John Adams wins the election. He wins the northern states which are more densely populated.

Shows the Dangers of: Sectionalism Sectionalism is the idea that there are separate, distinct ideologies based on geographic region.

The XYZ Affair French begin taking over American ships that are trading with Britain after Jay Treaty. French are angry…they believe that America has broken the French-American Trade Alliance.

XYZ – Solution(S) Adams sends diplomats to France. Foreign Minister Tallyrand sends 3 no-name diplomats who demand 250K to see Tallyrand. Americans refuse.

Outcome Two years of undeclared war between France and America 1798 – American Navy is formed. American Navy begins seizing French ships in retaliation.

The Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798 Description The Adams Administration faced a lot of criticism. Many of President Adams’ critics were foreign born immigrants Adams proposed the Alien and Sedition Acts as a response to what Adams saw as a growing threat against the government.

Naturalization, Alien & Sedition Act The Naturalization Act ~ raised requirement for US citizenship from 5 to 14 years. Alien Act: Allowed the president to imprison and deport non-citizens who were deemed dangerous  The Sedition Act ~ set fines and jail terms for anyone expressing opinions considered “false, scandalous or malicious” against the government

Outcome Alien and Sedition Acts anger Democratic-Republicans such as Jefferson and Madison They claim that these acts violate 1st Amendment Freedom of Speech

The KY and VA Resolutions Jefferson and Madison organize opposition to Alien and Sedition Acts

Solutions Madison wrote resolutions that were adopted by VA and KY Principle of Nullfication – The idea that if a law passed by Congress is in conflict with the constitution or is “unconstitutional” then a state may declare that law null or void.

Outcomes No other states join VA and KY…But it sets the stage for the next election—Jefferson is going to remind people of the Alien and Sedition Acts when he runs against Adams in 1800.
