There was no Republican Party per se at the time of the adoption of the Bill of Rights; the two parties at the time were the Federalists and the Democratic Republicans. Federalists believed in a strong centralized government, while Democratic Republicans believed in a weaker central government. The Bill of rights grew out of a tacit agreement between the two parties that Democratic Republicans would support the new constitution provided it was subsequently amended to expressly include provisions to protect certain individual rights; these were the first ten amendments to the constitution and became comonly known as the Bill of Rights.
