The correct answer is "Alexander Hamilton, who conceived of and authored the majority of the Federalists Papers, wrote them as an argument for and a defense of the US Constitution."

The Federalists Papers were a series of essays written by Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison that were published under the author name "Publius." These papers provide reasoning and evidence as to why the new US Constitution would be a positive system of government for America. These essays directly and indirectly discuss important philosophies such as judicial review, a system of checks and balances, and the idea of a president (aka an executive branch).
