With the List's permission, let me add one additional, though minor, question: Does anyone know the reasons for referring to Jefferson's wing as the "democrat-republicans"? If the founding generation so disfavored democracy, why did the Jeffersonian wing use the term as a partial description of its political philosophy? (Or perhaps the term was used disparagingly by Jefferson's enemies?) Thanks.
