Read an excerpt from Washington's Farewell Address and answer the following question.
A political party"... serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. It agitates the
community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally
riot and insurrection."
What did Washington believe political parties would do to the new nation?
O undermine presidents and congressional leaders
fill it with angry and envious people
O create division rather than unity
O incite war with foreign nations
