With respect to the federal Constitution, the Jeffersonian Republicans are usually characterized as strict constructionists who were opposed to the broad constructionism of the Federalists. To what extent was this characterization of the two parties accurate during the presidencies of Jefferson and Madison?

Well, what do you think might be the answer to this, brightestcray0n? We're not here to do your homework for you.

If you post what you think about what you're asking first, you just might have some people who'll come along to discuss with you about that which you're asking.

Happy learning!

Thanks!
