    Hamilton participated in the formation of the US as a Federation, so we are talking about the first US Senate.

    A very distinctive feature is transparency. At that first moment, the meetings were secret, there was no permission from spectators and for a long time did not even have the publication of minutes. Today, with Democracy consolidated, there is transparency. Everything that happens in the Senate is documented and transmitted to society through official media and the press.

    In addition, the role of the vice president of the republic should be emphasized. In that Senate, the vice president had the power to command the Senate. Today, the vice president only fulfills his missions in executive power, while the president of the Senate is chosen by a vote among the senators.

    Alexander Hamilton idea of Senate - as long as James Madison idea - considered equal representation despite differences in population impacted the ideas of justice in the human being (according to "Debates in Federal Convention of 1787". For Madison, equal representation was an unjust principle. The Apportionment Scheme - process in which seats in a legislative body are distributed by administrative divisions entitled by representation created controversy at the Constitutional convention.

    Today, the United States Senate is comprised of one hundred members - two senators per state (50 states). They serve a six-year term. The U. S. Senate was established by the Constitution as one chamber of the federal government's legislative branch, along with members of the House of Representatives. They propose and vote on federal legislation of domestic and foreign U. S. policy.
