UNIT 3 FEDERALISTS VS ANTI-FEDERALISTS Coach Sparks

Once the Constitution is written it must go to the states for their approval People will be able to vote for or against the Constitution

FEDERALISM – a system of government in which power is shared between the states and the national government

Two groups begin to develop: 1) FEDERALISTS – want the Constitution to pass as is YES!!

2) ANTI-FEDERALISTS – do NOT want the Constitution to pass as is

FEDERALISTS The Constitution is awesome! I think everyone should rush out and vote for it!

FEDERALISTS 1) Supported taking some powers from the states and giving them to the national government

2) Wanted to divide powers among the different branches of government FEDERALISTS 2) Wanted to divide powers among the different branches of government EXECUTIVE JUDICIAL LEGISLATIVE

3) Wanted a single person to lead the executive branch FEDERALISTS 3) Wanted a single person to lead the executive branch

ANTI-FEDERALISTS The Constitution is not worth the paper it is printed on! Where is the Bill of Rights?

1) Wanted the states to keep the most important powers ANTI-FEDERALISTS 1) Wanted the states to keep the most important powers

EXECUTIVE (PRESIDENT) ANTI-FEDERALISTS 2) Wanted the legislative branch to have more power than the executive branch EXECUTIVE (PRESIDENT) LEGISLATIVE (CONGRESS)

ANTI-FEDERALISTS 3) Feared a single person in the executive branch might become a king or tyrant

ANTI-FEDERALISTS 4) Believed a Bill of Rights need to be added to the Constitution to protect people’s rights

Both sides published their viewpoints in newspapers, pamphlets, etc.

THE FEDERALIST PAPERS – a series of essays which supported the Federalists viewpoint (wanted the Constitution to pass)

The Federalists Papers were written by such men as James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay

Federalists had an advantage because most newspapers supported their cause

Federalist Highlight Large Federal Republic (10) In a federal republic, power is divided vertically between a general (federal) government and state governments. Two levels of government, each supreme in its own sphere, can exercise powers separately and directly on the people.

Federalist Highlight Republicanism (10) A republican government is one "in which the scheme of representation takes place." It is based on the consent of the governed because power is delegated to a small number of citizens who are elected by the rest.

Federalist #51 Defends the Constitution Explains why a strong gov’t is necessary “If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary.” Defends separation of powers between state and national gov’t

Federalist Highlight Separation of Powers (51) Executive: Power to appoint judges, sole power to wage war Legislative: Power to write laws, sole power to declare war Judicial: Sole power to interpret the law and apply it to particular disputes

By June of 1788 a total of 9 states had ratified (passed) the Constitution 9 states were required to officially make it the legal form of government

Two very important states though, Virginia and New York, had not yet passed it and were needed

Two important Virginians, GEORGE MASON and PATRICK HENRY were against the Constitution

Virginia finally passes it once they are convinced it will soon add a Bill of Rights

New York passes it once they hear Virginia had Rhode Island is the last state to officially ratify it in 1790

BILL OF RIGHTS – the first ten amendments to the Constitution Insures personal rights to each U.S. citizen

Take a moment and reflect…. Do the Anti-Federalists care more about protecting individual rights or promoting the common good? Do the Federalists care more about protecting individual rights or promoting the common good?

Individual Rights The Anti-Federalists were more concerned with protecting the rights of the individual people and states, then promoting the pubic good as a whole.

Common Good The Federalists were more concerned with promoting the common good of everyone then protecting individual rights
