Democratic-Republican, but it was basically the name for the anti-federalists. The two major parties formed out of the debate over the constitution. The Bill of Rights was added kind of as a compromise so the anti-federalists would agree to adopt the constitution. So I guess thank God for these guys or we might not be able to say what we want, own a gun, be forced to testify in a case against us, etc.
