Yes, Alexander Hamilton was a Federalist. This meant that he was in favor of a strong federal government. Under the Articles of Confederation, the Federal Government had little power over the states, something that was a big problem. Hamilton favored a new document to govern the country, and therefore supported the ratification of the Constitution. Under the Constitution, the Federal government would have the power to issue money, and regulate trade and taxes.
