In 50 words, describe how each political party represented different needs and desires of people in the states. do you think that this representation is what the colonists wanted from great britain before the revolution? why or why not?

Generally, it is said that the two parties system are there to defend two ideas:

One is that we can take care of ourselves and live without the government telling us all we must do all the time and, instead, the government would just be taking care of the most urgent and important matters, like security, road building and perhaps education, while the Americans would do all the rest.

The other idea is that men need to be constantly be regulated and told what to do, otherwise, bad things could happen. So it's needed higher taxes so the government can spend money on what they thing to be the best for the citizens.

Generally speaking, our 2 party systems was never desirable and, in fact, our founding fathers warned us about it. John Adams and George Washington agreed that having a 2 party system would not be a good thing for the nation.

The political parties of the United States have always been formed around a particular issue or desire of people. For example, the Federalist party was formed due to the issue of the ratification of the Constitution, while the Free Soil party was formed as a way to oppose the expansion of slavery in the West. Each political party has represented different needs of the population. This is what colonists wanted from Great Britain prior to the Revolution. Before the war, Americans could not have different opinions in politics, or hope that their views were represented in the political arena.
