In this video, Tom Richey introduces you to Federalist no. 78, one of the Federalist papers written by Alexander Hamilton. The main topic of this document was the independence and power of the judicial branch -- specifically the Supreme Court. The Federalist Papers were written by James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay in order to persuade the people of the state of New York to support the ratification of the Constitution. Antifederalist writers, such as Brutus, had claimed that the Constitution would be neither federal nor republican in nature. Madison, Hamilton, and Jay argued that the Constitution would preserve republican government and would preserve the federal system and the rights of the states.

This video will be helpful for students preparing for the AP United States Government and Politics exam. AP Gov students are expected to be familiar with Federalist 10, Federalist 51, Federalist 70, and Federalist 78.
