James Madison in The Federalist No. 10
James Madison believed in the power of rhetoric and logic, believing all positions could be addressed and debated in cases of spirit and faction. This was especially beneficial if one group felt they were being discriminated against by another group, or having their needs denied for the benefit of the whole, argument was needed to resolve these conflicts.
Liberty is to faction what air is to fire. James Madison says this in Federalist #10. It pretty much means like if you were to remove liberty would be to remove the air, which is essential to life.
Hamilton distrust Madison and Jefferson because they were supporting France and were against Great Britain.They were hostile to him.Hamilton said that the views of Madison and Jefferson are unsound and dangerous.
Madison defines a faction as "a number of citizens, whether amounting to a minority or majority of the whole, who are united and actuated by some common impulse of passion, or of interest, adverse to the rights of other citizens, or to the permanent and aggregate interests of the community".
IN the newspaper "the federalist" he wrote that no faction would be able to control the government because the USA is too big
