Jefferson and Madison created the political party, Democratic/Republican, so that the "common man" could have a say in the government. People like farmers and tradespeople joined this party, while people in the OTHER party, the Federalist Party, were richer people, like lawyers, merchants, manufacturers, and clergy.
