The correct answer is D) create factions with self-seeking interests.
The formation of political parties was not encouraged by the Founding Fathers because they feared that political parties would create factions with self-seeking interests.
It was George Washington one of the first prominent Americans and founding-father who expressed his concerns about political parties because they could split the country into many factions. And something similar happened when federalists led by JamensMadison and Alexander Hamilton debated and argued with antifederalists such as Thomas Jefferson about the kind of government the newborn nation needed.
