Hamilton and Jefferson cabinet debates (according to the musical "Hamilton")

 (Cabinet Battle 1)

(Cabinet Battle 2)

  Hamilton (for what later would be the Federalists) and Jefferson (for what would be the Republican-Democrats) - shortened topics of debate

Why did Hamilton want the public debate of the ratification of the Constitution (Federalist no. 1, 27 October 1787)

I propose, in a series of papers, to discuss the following interesting particulars:

"THE UTILITY OF THE UNION TO YOUR POLITICAL PROSPERITY

 THE INSUFFICIENCY OF THE PRESENT CONFEDERATION TO PRESERVE THAT UNION 

THE NECESSITY OF A GOVERNMENT AT LEAST EQUALLY ENERGETIC WITH THE ONE PROPOSED, TO THE ATTAINMENT OF THIS OBJECT 

THE CONFORMITY OF THE PROPOSED CONSTITUTION TO THE TRUE PRINCIPLES OF REPUBLICAN GOVERNMENT 

ITS ANALOGY TO YOUR OWN STATE CONSTITUTION and lastly, 

THE ADDITIONAL SECURITY WHICH ITS ADOPTION WILL AFFORD TO THE PRESERVATION OF THAT SPECIES OF GOVERNMENT, TO LIBERTY, AND TO PROPERTY"
