1. Disagreement within the party ex) Hamilton vs. John Adams (Quasi-war with France 1798 - 1799 and Adams' reluctance in declaring war)

2. Obnoxious taxation (excise tax on whiskey)

3. Unpopularity of laws infringing on civil liberties (Alien & Sedition Acts)

4. Opposition to the extension of suffrage (vote) Naturalization Act - discouraged immigration and encouraged some foreigners already in the country to leave and the Republicans believed these laws were unconstitutional
