"The Republican Party was formed to destroy him [Hamilton] and could have more accurately been called the Anti-Hamilton party."

"The first Republican Party was formed in 1792 by Jefferson and Madison. It was the Democratic-Republican ..."

So what was it, the Republican party or the Democratic-Republican party? When you refer to the Republican party, it is going to be understood as the modern Republican party that was founded in 1854. If you means something else, it is your responsibility to clarify that.

Anyone with the slightest knowledge of American history would know exactly what was referred to. The Republican Party was formed in 1792 and after Jackson became known as the Democratic Party. Don't blame me for your lack of knowledge about American history.
