- IN 1789, GEORGE WASHINGTON WAS ELECTED AS THE 1ST PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. HE GOT 69 ELECTORAL VOTES, MEANING THE DECISION WAS UNANIMOUS. WASHINGTON SERVED AS PRESIDENT FROM 1789 TO 1797.
- Basically, I won in a landslide!
- ...
- AGAINST WHO?
- WASHINGTON NEEDED TO SELECT SPECIAL PEOPLE FOR POSITIONS IN A RING THAT WOULD HELP HIM RUN THE COUNTRY. HE ENDED UP WITH THOMAS JEFFERSON, ALEXANDER HAMILTON, HENRY KNOX, AND EDMUND RANDOLPH. THE FIRST FULL CABINET MEETING WAS ON NOVEMBER 26TH, 1791.
- I'M TOM, THE SECRETARY OF STATE!
- I'M ALEX, THE SECRETARY OF TREASURY!
- I'M HENRY, THE SECRETARY OF WAR!
- I'M EDMUND, THE ATTORNEY GENERAL!
- AS THE COUNTRY DEVELOPED AND THE CONSTITUTION WAS RATIFIED IN 1787, DIFFERENCES OF OPINION AND ARGUMENTS FOLLOWED. FEDERALISTS LIKE ALEXANDER HAMILTON WANTED A STRONGER FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, AND ANTI-FEDERALISTS LIKE THOMAS JEFFERSON WANTED MORE POWER FOR THE STATES. THIS WAS BASICALLY THE EARLY VERSION OF POLITICAL PARTIES.
- WE, THE ANTI-FEDERALISTS, THINK AN OVERLY POWERFUL GOVERNMENT COULD BE SUUUPER PROBLEMATIC!
- EUGH, YOU GUYS ARE WILD.
- WELL WE, THE FEDERALISTS, THINK WE'VE HAD JUST ABOUT ENOUGH OF YOU!
