Answer

During the initial stages of the Constitution, John Jay, Alexander Hamilton, and James Madison were all considered Federalists. Together, the three wrote the Federalist papers, a collection of articles and writings pushing for a more Federalist government, and for the ratification of the Constitution. After the ratification, John Jay and Alexander Hamilton continued to support the Federalist party, Hamilton being the leader of it. Madison, however, joined with Jefferson in creating the Republican party and fiercely opposed the Hamilton plan. (this is 12 years after the ratification)
