The theories of Hamilton are most persuasive when upholding Legal procedure.

Explanation:

One of its main themes of the Washington government was the clash between Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson on the organization of a two-party system,

Hamilton's strategy for the National Bank formed a controversy along the same lines,

Hamilton and the Federalists supporting the National Bank, while Jefferson and the Democratic-Republicans opposed it.

This makes sense to give Parliament the freedom to act and understanding necessary to deal with different situations.

Yet, as Jefferson suggests, the laws that grant Congress so much authority if the legal system shall not be upheld. Recall that for Jefferson he advocated the Constitution's act, so the clause was not as meaningful for him as the Amendment could be amended to respond to new needs.
