	Federalists - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
		Federalists were also those statesmen and public figures supporting the administrations of President George Washington (1789 – 1797) and President John Adams (1797 – 1801), as well as the related political alliances after 1801.
		The Federalists continued to be a major political party (again, not in the modern sense) in New England and the Northeast, but never regained control of the Presidency or the Congress (Adams had successfully packed the U.S. Supreme Court with Federalist appointees before leaving office).
		The Federalists were generally not equal to the tasks of party organisation, and grew steadily weaker as the fortunes of the so-called Virginia Dynasty grew.

	Federalist Party (United States) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Federalists controlled the government for most of the 1790s, and, by 1798, they were arming the country to fight a war with France that never happened.
		Federalists were relieved that the new government proved capable of overcoming rebellion, while Republicans, with Gallatin their new hero, argued there never was a real rebellion and the whole episode was manufactured in order to accustom Americans to a standing army.
		A member of the official Federalist Party was essentially a conservative in the traditional sense, i.e., a supporter of the party of government (the Federalists originally controlled all three branches).

	Anti-Federalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This movement is sometimes called the Anti-Administration "Party", and it would coalesce into one of the nation's first two true political parties, the Republican Party of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison (not to be confused with the modern Republican Party).
		The Federalist movement of the 1780s was motivated by the proposition that the national government under the Articles of Confederation was too weak, and needed to be amended or replaced.
		The Federalist movement gradually showed broad-construction, nationalistic tendencies; the Anti-Federalist movement favored strict-constructionism and advocated popular rights against the asserted aristocratic, centralizing tendencies of its opponent, and gradually was transformed into the Republican Party of Thomas Jefferson.

		The two groups are not synonymous, and several Federalists of the first variety were not Federalists of the second (the most notable examples being Thomas Jefferson and James Madison).
