Yes, he was a staunch Federalist. He understood from his career as a military officer that an army needed a strong governing presence for it to stay together and fight effectively. He felt the United States government needed the same type of government if the new country was going to survive. The loose collection of individual states under the Articles of Confederation was not working harmoniously or effectively. He favored a strong federal government as opposed to Thomas Jefferson, who favored a weak one so as to preserve the authority each state had over its own affairs.
