Step-by-step explanation:

Alexander Hamilton and James Madison were two of the Founding Fathers of the United States, and leaders of the Federalist party as well, who, along with John Jay, wrote the Federalist Papers (1787), which consisted of a series of essays that explained and support the proposed Constitution. Through these essays, Madison, Hamilton, and Jay aimed to lead those who favored the Constitution and persuade the opponents to ratify it as it would empower the federal government to act firmly and coherently in the national interest.

Answer 2

They were the leaders of the Constitution movement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both Alexander Hamilton and James Madison were federalists, they defended the ratification of the Constitution and to convince people of that they wrote the series of pamphlets called “The Federalist”.

They believed that the Constitution was the only solution for the problems that were shown by the Articles of Confederation. Because of that, they knew that a strong central government was needed and the Articles did not present that, so they provided the solution: Federalism.
