5. Chapter 8: Securing the Republic
Politics in an Age of Passion
Hamilton's Program
As secretary of the treasury, Alexander Hamilton's long-range goal was to make the United States a major commercial and military power.
His program had five parts:
Create creditworthiness by assuming state debts
Create a new national debt
Create a bank of the United States
Tax producers of whiskey
Impose tariffs and provide government subsidies to industries
The Emergence of Opposition
Opposition to Hamilton's plan was voiced by James Madison and Thomas Jefferson.
Hamilton's plan depended on a close relationship with Britain.
Opponents believed the United States' future lay westward, not with Britain.

6. The Jefferson-Hamilton Bargain
At first, opposition to Hamilton's program arose almost entirely from the South.
Hamilton argued the "general welfare" clause of the Constitution justified his program.
Jefferson insisted on "strict construction" of the Constitution, which meant the federal government could only exercise powers specifically listed in that document.
Jefferson agreed southerners would accept Hamilton's plan in exchange for placing the national capital on the Potomac River between Maryland and Virginia.

7. The Impact of the French Revolution
The French Revolution became very radical by 1793, and France went to war with Britain.
George Washington declared American neutrality.
Jay's Treaty (1794) abandoned any American alliance with France by positioning the United States close to Britain.

8. An Expanding Public Sphere
The political debates of the 1790s expanded the public sphere.
Newspapers and pamphlets were a primary vehicle for political debate.
Supporters of the French Revolution and critics of the Washington administration formed nearly fifty Democratic-Republican Societies in
The societies argued that political liberty meant not simply voting at elections but also constant involvement in public affairs.

9. Gabriel's Rebellion
A slave rebellion was attempted in Virginia in 1800.
The conspiracy was rooted in Richmond's black community.
Gabriel spoke the language of liberty forged in the American Revolution and reinvigorated during the 1790s.
Virginia's slave laws became stricter.

10. The Build-Up to the War of 1812
The Barbary Wars
Jefferson hoped to avoid foreign entanglements.
Barbary pirates from North Africa demanded bribes from American ships.
Because Jefferson refused to increase payments to the pirates, the United States and Tripoli engaged in a naval conflict that ended with American victory in 1804.
The Embargo
War between France and Great Britain hurt American trade.
The Embargo Act resulted in a crippled U.S. economy.
Replaced with the Non-Intercourse Act
Madison and Pressure for War
Macon's Bill no. 2 allowed trade to resume. (1810)
The War Hawks called for war against Britain.
Wished to annex Canada

11. The War of 1812 The War's Aftermath
Madison asked Congress for a declaration of war.
The government found it difficult to finance the war.
Americans enjoyed few military successes.
Andrew Jackson achieved the war's greatest victory at New Orleans in January 1815.
Peace officially came with the Treaty of Ghent in December 1814, although news of it did not arrive until after the Battle of New Orleans.
The War's Aftermath
The war confirmed the ability of a Republican government to conduct a war without surrendering its institutions.
