Base your answer to the next 2 questions on the following passage and on your knowledge of

"...Let me now take a more comprehensive view, and warn you in the most solemn manner.
against the baneful [destructive] effects of the spirit of party generally... The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge natural to party dissension... Is itself a frightful despotism... The disorders and miseries which result gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual, and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more
fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation on
the ruins of public liberty....
It serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble [weaken] the public administration.
it agitates the community with ill-rounded jealousies and false alarms: kindles the animosity of
one part against another: foments [provokes] occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the
door to foreign influence and corruption, which find a facilitated (easy) access to the government itself through the channels of party passion."
