Over the past two weeks, we discussed several problems that occurred under Washington’s and Adams’s presidency, which underscored the growing divide between Federalists and Democratic-Republicans. As a result, using the Twitter template below, write a minimum of twenty tweets from either Alexander Hamilton’s or Thomas Jefferson’s point of view. Your tweets should be appropriate and should reflect the division between these two prominent figures. Remember, your tweets must be written in twenty-first century lingo.

Directions:
Task #1: Choose either Alexander Hamilton (Federalist) or Thomas Jefferson (Democratic-Republican)
Task #2: Design your Twitter page. You should include a picture, followers, hash tags, and other miscellaneous details (__**Twitter Template**__).
Task #3: Each group member should come up with a list of possible tweets and hash tags on his or her computer. Following this, compile the list in __**Google Docs**__to share with one another.
Task #4: Write a minimum of fifteen tweets and hash tags concerning each of the following: Economic philosophy of the country, should the federal or state government have more power, Elastic Clause, Bank of the United States, Whiskey Rebellion, French Revolution, Quasi War with France, XYZ Affair, Alien & Sedition Acts, Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions, nullification. These tweets should be in chronological order (therefore, the latest tweets should appear at the top of your page and past tweets at the bottom). Also, remember, Hamilton really dislikes Jefferson and vice versa. Make sure this sentiment is reflected in your tweets.
Task #5: Save as a word document. Upload to __**MyBigCampus.**__
