Hamilton was a monarchist who originally wanted a government monarchy. When that failed he became a nationalist advocating a strong central government. When that failed he reluctantly signed on with the majority knowing full well that the nationalists would immediately begin to chip away at the constitution in order to shift power away from the states ultimately getting close to what he wanted in the first place. Imagine that our politicians would say anything to deceive the people even then. As always; in politics, the end justifies the means.
