I ll mitigate my previous apology by still insisting that the Democracy section is seriously flawed Another point Jefferson s an elective despotism is not the government we fought for is about preventing de facto oligarchy by seperation of powers and doesn t bolster the point that is supposed to be supported Also Washington in particular was anti Democrat but there were plenty of people who were against Washington and Hamilton and would have used the moniker Democrat with pride with the exception of the ten year period between 1790 the whiskey rebellion and 1800 During this period the practice of having Democratic clubs died down specifically because Washington charged the clubs with having incited the rebellion The use of the word mostly in this section is a gross over use If you want to describe the tension between the aristocratic federalists and the democratic Republicans then you should have a section on that Right now this section is completely one sided I will edit as time permits if there are not stated objections
