I'm going to assume you are learning about the Democratic-Republicans, Federalists, Anti-Federalists, etc... So I'll answer as best as I can since I've learned this.
Jefferson's view on "the people" was that they were very honest and weren't going to do anything bad, he believed people weren't animals basically.
(I know the question does not ask this, but here's the other side)
However, Hamilton believed that "the people" were untrustable and terrible human being, he indeed believed they were animals.
I hope I helped!
