History

The first president of the United States, George Washington, was not a member of any political party at the time of his election or throughout his tenure as president. Furthermore, he hoped that political parties would not be formed, fearing conflict and stagnation. Nevertheless, the beginnings of the American two-party system emerged from his immediate circle of advisers.

A. The first political parties, were in a sense, two groups: The Federalists and the Anti-Federalists. Federalists were for the ratification of the Constitution. Anti-Federalists were opposed to the ratification of the Constitution. In a sense, these were the beginning of political parties, but they grew in later years.

Will there ever be a third major political party in the United States?
Q. And if there were, what would it be? Who would it represent? Of course, there are hundreds of political parties, but will there ever be one other than the Dems and the GOP that gets any real attention, and captures double digit support in more than two elections? It seems to me that two parties can't possibly represent all the people. There are folks in both big partes that feel their party has sold them out. What do you think?
