What was the difference between Hamilton and Jeffersons view of the common man participating in government?

Hamilton believed that the common man was not capable of making informed decisions and thus advocated for a strong, centralized government led by elites. Jefferson, on the other hand, believed in the inherent capability of the common man and valued participatory democracy. He believed that the common man should have an active role in government and that their voices should be heard and represented.

Why did Thomas Jefferson not like Hamilton?

because he was black I think it's fair to ignore the first answerer. There's no real reason that I'm aware of except that they simply disagreed about nearly everything. Jefferson wanted to spread the power, but Hamilton wanted to keep amongst a few elites. Jefferson feared tyranny, but Hamilton feared anarchy. Jefferson was free and creative, but Hamilton was neat and organized. Jefferson wore plainer clothes; Hamilton dressed more formally. Jefferson supported farming; Hamilton, manufacturing. Jefferson = strict construction; Hamilton = loose construction. The list goes on.
