I have another really informative website for you guys to look into. This time it is about the history of the political parties. More specifically, who the founders were, why they were formed, and what each party's views on how to run the country was. The most notably figures in the history of the political parties are Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton. The primary difference between them is that Hamilton wanted a large central government lead by the wealthy and educated, while Jefferson wanted a small government that was enforced by the people, particularly the farmers. That is just a little bit of information from the site, there is much more to learn.
