Question

Which of these slogans would Hamilton support? Text to speech
A. “Power to the common people”
B. “Farming, not factories”
C. “Greatness through trade”
D. “Keep state governments strong”

Answer 1

Answer:

I would probably say "C"

Explanation:

"B" is unlikely as he lived in New York, a more modernizing state, while those in favor of farming lived in the South.

"D" is unlikely because he stood with the Federalists, who believed in a strong central government. Anti-Federalists believed in strong state governments.  

"A" would be my second choice, but "C" makes the most sense as Hamilton dealt mostly with economics. He was the first Treasury Secretary and he established the first national bank.
