6. Political Party Activity On the scrap piece of paper Write down the following CAPITAL LETTERS for each statement that you agree with for certain issues. Be sure to write your letters in CAPITAL.

7. Interpretation of the Constitution I favor a strict interpretation of the Constitution. The federal government should be strictly limited in what actions it can take. Constitutions should be loosely interpreted; the reason is that they must necessarily not be permanent, and that they cannot calculate for the possible change of things.

8. The American Economy The American economy should rest on the diligence of the farmer. The farmer represents all noble republican ideals. I distrust cities and bankers and put my faith in the yeoman farmer. In order for our nation to be strong we must be diversified, giant, manufacturing, urban based, and to be what we might call 'booming'.

9. The Central Government I am for a strong central government. The states alone have shown disposition towards certain matters. We need a central government to keep them in line. I equate federalism with Royalism. I support the states’ rights theory which asserts that the federal government has no right to exercise powers over the states.

10. War Debt The states should pay the war debt to the government independently. States like Maryland, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Virginia, which have already paid off their debts, see no reason why they should be taxed by the federal government to pay off the debts of other states A national debt, if it is not excessive, will be to us a national blessing. “The public necessities must be satisfied; this can only be done by contributions of the whole society.”

11. French Revolution I support the French Revolution as they are fighting for the same things we did, Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. I do not support the French Revolution as they have to be controlled. The masses cannot be trusted.

12. National Bank I believe in the need for banks to provide credit and stimulate the economy. "And why cannot we have an American bank? I propose a Bank of the United States with a $10 million capital and the ability to issue paper money. I am strongly opposed to the creation of a national bank. If the American people ever allow the banks to control the issuance of their currency, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children will wake up homeless....

13. The Bill of Rights "A bill of rights is what the people are entitled to against every government on earth, general or particular; and what no just government should refuse, or rest on inferences. I go further, and affirm that bills of rights, in the sense and in the extent in which they are contended for, are not only unnecessary in the proposed constitution, but would even be dangerous.
