Anyways the warhawks in the war of 1812 were radicals who wanted to go to war with the british. They dominated the congress at the time which is a major reason for the war of 1812. Henry Clay of Kentucky was the figure head of the group. Clay was the speaker of the house in 1812.

here's a blurb i found when trying to answer this same question for my homework:Radical Reconstruction, also known as Congressional Reconstruction, was the time when congressional Republicans, moderates and Radicals, controlled Reconstruction in the South. Prior to Republican control, Andrew Johnson's Presidential Reconstruction had allowed ex-Confederate leaders to regain power in southern state governments. He lost control over Reconstruction when congressional elections in the fall of 1866 led to a two-thirds majority of Republicans in both houses of Congress. When the Fortieth Congress returned in March 1867, presidential Reconstruction ended.Hope that helped you!!
