The Republican and Democratic Parties The modern Democratic Party evolved from the Jeffersonian Republican Party, led and organized by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. The Jeffersonian Republican Party arose as a response to the Federalist Party, headed by Alexander Hamilton and John Adams. Jeffersonian Republicans favored republicanism, a political ideology that emphasizes the unalienable rights of people, a weak federal government, state?s rights, agrarian societal emphasis, and a strict adherence to the principles of the Constitution. The party also opposed the national bank and demoted relations with Great Britain.
