Remember that part of the play where it goes

And he talked for 6 hours, the convention was listless. 'Bright young man', yo who the hell is this?

During that 6 hour spiel at the Constitutional Convention, he described the president as an executive similar to a king that was elected for life. Hamilton was radically progressive for his time, but he still had a soft spot for a highly powerful executive.

Nah, Jefferson was the one who was looking west super hungrylike.

He just said a lot of pretty words about presidential light touch because it would make it less likely a president would interfere with him being a slave oligarch on top of being an imperialist.
