The correct answer should be

C. Alexander Hamilton and Henry Clay

They were the biggest supporters of the idea while Jefferson and Madison were against it and advocated not opening it. It was called the First Bank of America and Alexander Hamilton became the first secretary of treasure, but it was a bit differently organized then than how it is now.
