John Adams
They wanted a stronger national government because the constitution was to weak, so with a lot of different and separate people in the government no one person or group would get to much power.
James Madison wanted to replace the Articles of Confederation because he thought they would have a stronger national government. But Patrick Henry wanted to keep the Articles. :))
The Federalist Papers argued that the new Constitution would create a strong national government, which was needed, but it would also protect the minorities and factions. The new government would also, in the development of federalism, protect the citizen from a too powerful national government. The papers also tried to explain how each branch of the national government would function.
They grew stronger because the British government promised them self-government.

The federal government became stronger after the Civil War in many different ways. After the war they started selling government bonds, which helped strengthen the government economically. The nation became stronger as a whole too because they began to support their national government.
There was more money and trade in it for them if they became Federalists because there was a stronger national government.

The delegates call for the constitutional convention because they realized we need a stronger national government.
The delegates settled on a federal form of government instead of a system in which power was not divided between state and national government because they believed that it provided for a much stronger national government with a chief executive (the president), courts, and taxing powers.

The national government was unable to solve its financial problems, because under the Articles of Confederation, the government had no power to collect taxes. This was one reason why many favored a stronger national government.
Because, the Federalists left a big imprint when the strong national government fell in 1820 and convinced people that they wanted a stronger nation but not too strong.
